[TABLE="class: cccTable"]
[TR]
[TD="class: cccLbl"]Description[/TD]
[TD="class: cccVal"]Understanding the normal functions of the body is essential for successful veterinary practice and for understanding the mechanisms of disease. The 5[SUP]th[/SUP] edition of Textbook of Veterinary Physiology approaches this vast subject in a practical, user-friendly way that helps you understand how key concepts relate to clinical practice. From cell physiology to body system function to homeostasis and immune function, this comprehensive text gives you the solid foundation you need to provide effective veterinary care.
Expanded resources on the companion Evolve website include state-of-the-art 3D animations, practice questions, a glossary, and additional Clinical Correlations not found in the text.
