Scott (biomedicine, Queen's U., Belfast, Ireland) presents the first UK edition of this text, which aims for a simple and fun approach to pathophysiology and explains complex concepts in a concise and clear way. The text reviews the basics, including cells and cell components, cell division, degeneration and aging, genetics, homeostasis, infection, and disease, then uses a systems approach to present information on many common disorders and their epidemiology and pathophysiology, signs and symptoms, diagnostic tools, and current treatments, along with overviews of each body system and its anatomy and physiology. Mnemonics, illustrations, and multiple-choice questions are included, and study cards, image banks, and other resources are accessible online.
