Description

FUNDAMENTALS OF HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY provides clear, current, concise, clinically oriented coverage of physiology. It focuses on the mechanisms of body function from cells to systems and is organized around the central theme of homeostasis — how the body meets changing demands while maintaining the internal constancy necessary for all cells and organs to function. Many analogies and frequent references to everyday experiences help you relate to the physiology concepts presented. Offering helpful art and pedagogical features, Sherwood promotes understanding of the basic principles and concepts of physiology rather than memorization of details and provides you with a foundation for a future career in the health professions.

Following graduation from Michigan State University in 1966, Dr. Lauralee Sherwood joined the faculty at West Virginia University, where she is currently a Professor in the Department of Physiology and Pharmacology, School of Medicine. For the past 40 years, Professor Sherwood has taught an average of over 400 students each year in physiology courses for pharmacy, medical technology, physical therapy, occupational therapy, nursing, medical, dental, dental hygiene, nutrition, exercise physiology, and athletic training majors. She has authored three physiology textbooks: HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY: FROM CELLS TO SYSTEMS, FUNDAMENTALS OF HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY, and ANIMAL PHYSIOLOGY: FROM GENES TO ORGANISMS, all published by Cengage Learning/Brooks/Cole. Dr. Sherwood has received numerous teaching awards, including an Amoco Foundation Outstanding Teacher Award, a Golden Key National Honor Society Outstanding Faculty Award, two listings in Who’s Who Among America’s Teachers, and the Dean’s Award of Excellence in Education.

User’s Reviews

Not sure why this arrived with a massive crease up the middle but apparently this was something that was common in several of the reviews. The book itself was a solid narrative and relatively easy to understand. I do with the author had not chosen to sectionalize the book into bold orange sections cut up by navy blue sections that didn’t seem to necessarily match the flow of information. Beyond that though I’m glad I bought it.

I got the edition of the book I wanted however it came in black and white. I am not sure why a physiology book would be sold in black and white especially because when you “review” the book it is shown in color. Additionally, it has creases on the cover that indicate it may not be new (which is what I ordered it as). I give it three stars because the book itself is excellent, just the quality and presentation are not what I expected. Also, it took the seller a week from when I ordered it before they sent it and another week and a half before it arrived. Overall, average quality of service.
