Thinking quantitatively about physiology is something many students
find difficult. However, it is fundamentally important to a proper
understanding of many of the concepts involved. In this enlarged
second edition of his popular textbook, Richard Burton gives the
reader the opportunity to develop a feel for values such as ion
concentrations, lung and fluid volumes, blood pressures etc.
through the use of calculations which require little more than
simple arithmetic for their solution. Much guidance is given on how
to avoid errors and the usefulness of approximation and
'back-of-envelope sums'. Energy metabolism, nerve and muscle, blood
and the cardiovascular system, respiration, renal function, body
fluids and acid-base balance are all covered, making this book
essential reading for students (and teachers) of physiology
everywhere, both those who shy away from numbers and those who
revel in them.
