This book “Essentials of Medical Physiology” provides deep knowledge of human physiology. Physiology is described as the study of functions of various systems and different organs of the body. A brief knowledge of the anatomy of different systems and organs to understand the principles of human physiology is most important. Information of human physiology is also vital to understand the other allied subjects like biochemistry, pharmacology, pathology, medicine, etc. The basic physiological functions generally include provision of oxygen and nutrients, removal of metabolites and other waste products, maintenance of blood pressure and body temperature, locomotor functions, hunger and thirst, special sensory functions, and reproduction and intellectual functions like thinking, learning and memory. This book is divided into eleven sections and it is provided with updated tables, flow charts, and self-explanatory diagrams for better understanding of the users. General physiology is the first section of this book and it describes cell, cell junctions, transport through cell membrane, homeostasis and acid-base balance. The subsequent sections give a detailed account on blood and body fluids, muscle physiology, digestive system, renal physiology and skin, endocrinology, reproductive system, cardiovascular system and respiratory system. The last two sections provide an enhanced perceptive of the nervous system and special senses.
