This new, comprehensive analysis of human cardiovascular control explains the control of pressure, vascular volume and blood flow during orthostatis and exercise. Analysis of the physical properties of the vascular system and their modification by mechanical, neural, and humoural factors is highlighted by novel graphical representations of basic concepts. Interactive effects of the vasculature on cardiac performance and factors that both control and limit oxygen transfer from lungs to cells are stressed. This complete account will prove invaluable for all medical students, physiologists and clinicians who wish to better understand the reflex and hormonal control of the human cardiovascular system.

Loring B. Rowell is a Professor of Physiology and Biophysics and of Medicine (Cardiology) at the University of Washington School of Medicine. Dr. Rowell has published over 150 research papers, chapters, and review articles and has served on the editorial boeards of American Journal of Physiology, Circulation Research, and the Journal of Applied Physiology.
