Category Anatomy

Ross and Wilson has been a central text for anatomy and physiology students for nearly 40 years. This latest edition is aimed at health professionals including nurses, nursing students, medical-related professions students, paramedics, paramedics, and complementary therapists. It maintains the simple approach to describing body systems and how they work, and normal anatomy and physiology are followed by a section that addresses common disorders and diseases: pathology.

The human body is described system by system. The reader must remember, however, that physiology is an integrated topic and that, although the systems are considered in separate chapters, they must all work together for the human body to function as a healthy unit. The first three chapters give an overview of the body and describe its main components. A new introduction to the biochemistry section has been added and forms the basis for a deeper understanding of body functions.
