Internetové knihkupectví s veterinární tématikou
Publikace je rozdělena na 147 kapitol s více jak 1500 otázkami, což umožní čtenáři si lépe seznámit s problematikou veterinární fyziologie. Každá otázka je doplněna správnou odpovědí s podrobným vysvětlením o pravdivosti odpovědi. Odpovědi jsou umístěny hned po otázce, takže uživatel nemusí otočit stránkami tam a zpět. K dispozici jsou další poznámky na konci každé kapitoly. Svojí koncepcí je určena studentům veterinární medicíny, stážistům a postgraduálním studentům fyziologie a biochemie, kteří si chtějí otestovat své znalosti o fyziologii orgánových systémů.

All body systems including body fluids, neuromuscular, respiratory, cardiovascular, renal, GI, endocrine and reproductive physiology are covered in this 147 chapter, 1500 question style format. Each topic contains 5 to 10 questions that examine physiologic concepts and integrated processes. The organization of the topics, a table of contents and an extensive index allow the user to easily access topics of interest. The multiple choice questions are in a similar format to those used in certifying and board examinations, including those used by the Professional Examination Service. Each question is accompanied by the correct answer along with a detailed explanation about why that answer is correct, and why the others are not. Answers are positioned right after the question, so the user does not have to flip back and forth between pages. There are extra note pages at the end of each chapter. Written for veterinary students who wish to organize and test their thinking in physiology, for interns and resi-dents preparing for their specialty board examinations, for graduate students in physiology, biochemistry, phar-macology, bioengineering, animal science and nutrition, and for practicing veterinarians who wish to test their knowledge of organ system physiology.
