_Quantitative Human Physiology: An Introduction,_ winner of a 2018
Textbook Excellence Award (Texty), is the first text to meet the needs
of the undergraduate bioengineering student who is being exposed to
physiology for the first time, but requires a more
analytical/quantitative approach. This book explores how component
behavior produces system behavior in physiological systems. Through
text explanation, figures, and equations, it provides the engineering
student with a basic understanding of physiological principles with an
emphasis on quantitative aspects.
* Winner of a 2018 Textbook Excellence Award (College) (_Texty_)
from the Textbook and Academic Authors Association
* Features a quantitative approach that includes physical and
chemical principles
* Provides a more integrated approach from first principles,
integrating anatomy, molecular biology, biochemistry and physiology
* Includes clinical applications relevant to the biomedical
engineering student (TENS, cochlear implants, blood substitutes, etc.)
* Integrates labs and problem sets to provide opportunities for
practice and assessment throughout the course
NEW FOR THE SECOND EDITION
* Expansion of many sections to include relevant information
* Addition of many new figures and re-drawing of other figures to
update understanding and clarify difficult areas
* Substantial updating of the text to reflect newer research results
