Reviews

YA A technical introduction to six key areas: the cell as part of the whole, muscle and movement, systemic circulation, systemic regulation through hormones and nerves, body interfaces to get things in and out of the body and adaptation or the momentous journey from conception to birth. The interrelationships of these systems in terms of chronic illnesses and diseases and the allied therapy of modern medical practices make this a useful update for health and science collections.
