Book Description: Human Physiology guides students through the mechanisms that sustain human life, linking the chemistry and physics of body structures to their functions in maintaining dynamic equilibrium across body systems. Beginning with the basics of structural organization and homeostasis, the text progresses through cellular and system-level physiology—including neural and endocrine control, circulation and gas exchange, fluid and electrolyte balance, metabolism, and renal and digestive function—emphasizing how organs interact to preserve homeostasis. With sections organized into conceptually focused units and key terms supported by review questions, this resource equips students with the foundational knowledge and analytical skills essential for further study in health-related biological sciences.
