Overview of medical physiology

The textbook by the authors from the Institute of Physiology of the 1st Faculty of Medicine of Charles University presents to those interested in the field of medical physiology a basic overview of the most important principles of the functioning of the human organism.

It is conceived as a modern teaching text intended primarily for undergraduate dental students and students of non-medical medical disciplines, but it can also serve as a basis for a review of the basics of physiology for students of general medicine. The book should primarily facilitate students' understanding of the nature of pathological processes and the related diagnostic and therapeutic procedures of clinical medicine.

It is particularly suitable for the Master's degree programmes in dentistry and general medicine and for the Bachelor's degree programmes in nursing, occupational therapy, physiotherapy, medical technology and addictionology, etc.
The reader will appreciate the nearly 200 colour diagrams, figures and tables for better understanding.
