Book Description:
This Handbook has been written by biomedical scientists & clinicians into disseminate the fundamental scientific principles that underpin clinical medicine. Frequent cross-referencing with the Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine helps into highlight the clinical relevance of specific issues. Deliberately divided into issues that mirror modern medical teaching strategies, this handbook builds from a clear, easily digestible account of basic cell physiology & biochemistry into an investigation of the traditional piers of medicine (anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, pathology & pharmacology) integrated in the context of each of the major systems relevant into the human body. Although primarily aimed at medical students, the handbook will also provide a useful reference for science students studying any of the traditional biomedical sciences.
