Biology of Disease describes the biology of many of the human disorders and disease that are encountered in a clinical setting. Assuming no prior knowledge of the principles of diagnostic science, chapters follow a consistent format throughout. Each opens with a statement of learning objectives, a basic introduction and a description of normal physiology. These are followed by a discussion of how the latter is altered by the disease process and comprehensive coverage of the scientific principles underlying disease development, diagnosis and treatment. Real cases are used to illustrate the importance of biology in understanding the causes of disease, as well as in diagnosis and therapy. This second edition has been thoroughly revised and updated throughout and is now presented in full colour with more case studies and increased illustration.
Carefully designed for first and second year students in biomedical science programs the book will also be a highly effective reference for health science professionals as well as being valuable to students beginning medical school.
