The second Canadian edition of Human Physiology: From Cells to Systems, has been extensively revised to meet the needs of Canadian students and instructors in core physiology programs, as well as related programs such as kinesiology, life science, and nursing. In addition to highlighting topics of research within a Canadian context, Human Physiology second Canadian edition delves into the mechanisms of body function from cells to systems and is organized around the central theme of homeostasis – how the body meets changing demands while maintaining the internal constancy necessary for all cells and organs to function. Unique to this market leading book are vivid process-oriented figures that incorporate step-by-step descriptions, allowing students to better understand key physiological processes. A brand new feature to the second edition is a section called Integrative Physiology. These pages are distinct and easy to find with their unique purple edges and are designed to enrich student understanding of the issues covered within the chapters. They build upon the concepts introduced within the chapters and complement the physiological processes presented.
