Book Description:
This Handbook has been written by biomedical scientists and clinicians to disseminate the fundamental scientific principles that underpin clinical medicine. Frequent cross-referencing with the Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine helps to highlight the clinical relevance of specific issues. Deliberately divided into sections that mirror modern medical teaching strategies, this handbook builds from a clear, easily digestible account of basic cell physiology and biochemistry to an investigation of the traditional piers of medicine (anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, pathology and pharmacology) integrated in the context of each of the major systems relevant to 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.
