Cunningham's Textbook of Veterinary Physiology, 6th Edition
Již šesté vydání Cunninghamovy učebnice veterinární fyziologie, přibližuje čtenářům tento vědecký obor v praktickém, uživatelsky přívětivým způsobem, který vám pomůže pochopit klíčové pojmy použitelné v klinické praxi. Jedná se o komplexní text, od buněčné fyziologie až po funkci tělesného systému až po homeostázu a imunitní funkce. Poskytuje pevný základ, který je nezbytný pro zvládnutí veterinárního kurikula.
Klíčové vlastnosti
Mezi rozšířené zdroje na webových stránkách společnosti Evolve patří nejmodernější 3D animace, praktické testy, glosář a klinické korelace .
Jsou prezentovány případové studie, které ilustrují, jak aplikovat principy a koncepty fyziologie v diagnostice a terapii veterinárních pacientů.
Praktické otázky na konci každé kapitoly prověří, zda jste správně pochopili to co jste četli, a poskytne hodnotnou recenzi pro zkoušky.
Klíčové body na začátku každé kapitoly představují nové koncepty a pomohou vám připravit se na zkoušky z fyziologie.
Celobarevný formát upozorňuje na užitečné informace a podporuje studium s množstvím ilustrací, které vizuálně zobrazují specifické funkce a podmínky.

Learn how to understand normal body functions before learning about the mechanisms of veterinary disease. Cunningham's Textbook of Veterinary Physiology, 6th Edition approaches this vast subject in a practical, user-friendly way that helps you grasp key concepts and learn how they relate to clinical practice. From cell physiology to body system function to homeostasis and immune function, this comprehensive text provides the solid foundation needed before advancing in the veterinary curriculum.
Key Features
Expanded resources on the companion Evolve website include state-of-the-art 3D animations, practice tests, a glossary, and Clinical Correlations.
Clinical Correlations boxes present case studies that illustrate how to apply physiology principles and concepts to the diagnosis and treatment of veterinary patients.
Practice questions at the end of each chapter test your understanding of what you've just read and provide valuable review for exams.
Key Points at the beginning of each chapter introduce new concepts and help you prepare for exams.
Full-color format highlights helpful information and enhances learning with a wealth of illustrations that visually depict specific functions and conditions.
