This textbook explores the fundamental qualitative and quantitative
aspects of human physiology. It approaches biological and
physiological processes and phenomena from a quantitative
perspective, revealing how physiological problems can be
mathematically formulated starting from simple laws of physics. The
book addresses a broad range of topics, including: the statics and
dynamics of circulation; muscle and sarcomere force-length and
force-velocity relations, together with their mechanisms and
functional consequences; subdivisions and meaning of the heat
produced by muscle; locomotion, statics and dynamics of
respiration; diffusion of gases and acid base equilibrium;
phonation; general functions of the kidney and of the different
sections of the nephron; changes in clearance with a substance's
plasmatic concentration; pH regulation and the kidney; Donnan's
equilibrium and its consequences; and the Nernst equation. The book
offers the ideal learning resource for students of human physiology
courses in medicine and biomedicine, as well as biomedical
engineering and biophysics graduate students. An elementary grasp
of mathematics and physics is sufficient to understand the content.
