Basics of Medical Physiology

Modern physiology is a huge, constantly developing discipline. In order to keep up for its development, all new textbooks and guidelines are written, including an increasing amount of information. Unfortunately, this trend has a reverse side: over the mass of new interesting facts, the descriptions of physiological experiments and modern methods disappear the basic patterns of physiology, the medical student and the doctor becomes more difficult to solve that necessary, which is needed to understand the body"s work, and as a result Physiology turns into an amount of knowledge, and not a way of thinking - that is, the very essence of this discipline is lost. Meanwhile, there are clear generally accepted concepts of physiology, which, on the one hand, are the basis for its understanding, on the other, the theoretical database of the doctor"s work. In the book "Basics of Medical Physiology", these concepts are set out with an extremely affordable language and all the necessary modern knowledge are preserved. For a medical student, this book can serve as a compressed and clear course of physiology, and for a doctor - the theoretical basis for his daily work, thereby "natural science in the bed of the patient", about which the classics of domestic medicine said.
