Campbell's Physiology Notes for Nurses

This accessible and friendly text is based on the premise that all nurses need a working knowledge of the normal functioning of the human body. It is only when we understand the normal that the abnormal pathological situation makes sense. If we can understand how the body goes wrong then it often becomes obvious what needs to be done to treat the disorder. So physiology and pathophysiology can both be used to inform our clinical interventions and provide us with rationales for care.John Campbell wrote these revision notes as a revision guide for his students and because they proved useful he decided to expand and publish them. The aim is to keep the text concise but to explain the physiology and necessary basic science in a way that is easy to understand and learn. Diagrams are an important part of this philosophy.Campbell, John Emory is the author of 'Campbell's Physiology Notes for Nurses' with ISBN 9781861563453 and ISBN 1861563450.
