Cardiovascular Physiology, Seventh Edition
نویسنده
چکیده
If you want to learn about the physiology of the cardiovascular system, and learn it really well, you will want to use this book. In its seventh edition, this book is a clear, understandable treatment of a potentially overwhelming topic. Throughout, the book maintains its focus on fundamental concepts and never loses the reader in esoterica (if a formula is derived it is usually highlighted in a red box to warn the wary!). Key points are italicized, and each chapter ends with a summary, a list of key words and concepts, selfstudy questions and a reference list of review articles and texts for the extra zealous student. The figures, drawings and diagrams all facilitate understanding of the concepts and are a valuable part of the text. The authors further score big (with me) by using clinical conditions and pathology to help illustrate the physiology-an approach that works very well. The last chapter synthesizes functional cardiovascular physiology through the discussion of what happens during the two important states of exercise and hemorrhage. Finally, there is an overall review examination in one of the appendices. This is a very thorough book and one which would also be valuable as a reference. I know many students who have used and liked this book. It is on the lengthy side relative to other review books popularly used, but at the same time, it is also more complete. If you have the time to give, it will be worth it.
