About the Book 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. The 3rd edition has been revised with the inclusion of a full new unit on The Integument and Integrated Physiology, more and expanded problem sets, and improved illustrations.Approx. 900 illustrations (900 in full color)
Readership Primary market/audience: Undergraduate bioengineering students taking a physiology course with an engineering perspective
