Editorial Reviews for Pathophysiology
|
Dynamically illustrated in full color, Pathophysiology is a comprehensive exploration of the etiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, and treatment of disease. Organized by body system, each unit opens with an illustrated review of anatomy and normal physiology, then follows with the disease processes and abnormalities that can occur. The text includes the influence of behavioral factors, life-style choices, and environmental factors on the cause and progression of disease, and covers the most current advances in genetic research and treatment modalities. * Highlighted Key Concepts are included in bulleted format after major discussions to help the student focus on important information. * Key terms appear in bold type within text discussions, and new terminology is defined in a comprehensive glossary, to help the student identify and understand new and important terms. * Key Questions are listed at the beginning of each chapter, emphasizing the most important concepts to be mastered. * Aging Process algorithms provide brief analyses of age-related changes of specific body systems, using an easy-to-understand, step-by-step format. * Frontiers in Research essays introduce each unit with an overview of current trends and recent developments, and speculation about future research findings.

Customer Rating: 
Summary: Great Reference Book
Comment: This textbook was used in my graduate nursing course and is laid out well. My professor was not great at explaining complex topics on a student level. But, this book made the subject easy to understand. I will definitely be keeping it as a reference guide for looking up disease processes that I'm not familiar with.

Summary: Okay
Comment: This book has great content, but uses words and terms without defining making it very hard to follow.

Summary: Not for medical students...
Comment: I bought this book recently and opened it, full of enthusiasm, ready to read. However I found that it's more a pathology than pathophysiology book. It tries to mix the two subjects and as a result it does not cover sufficiently either of the two. It is nicely organized though and may be good for other health sciences, but NOT for medical students!
Many of its pictures are "borrowed" from Robbin's Basic Pathology 7th ed. by Kumar, Cotran et al.
