West’s Pulmonary Pathophysiology: The Essentials 10th Edition John B. West 978-1-9751-5281-9 / 304 pp / May 2021

Renal Pathophysiology: The Essentials 5th Edition Helmut G. Rennke and Bradley M. Denker 978-1-9751-0959-2 / 386 pp / March 2019 Renal Pathophysiology: The Essentials offers medical students a case-based approach to learning the mechanisms of renal disease. Each chapter covers a disease, beginning with a patient case and followed by a discussion of the pathophysiology of the disease. Issues of differential diagnosis and therapy are linked to pathophysiologic mechanisms. Short questions interspersed throughout the text require students to apply their knowledge. Detailed answers to the questions are included. Medical Physiology: Principles for Clinical Medicine 5th Edition Medical Physiology: Principles for Clinical Medicine richly presents the physiology knowledge necessary for clinical practice. Along with the latest information on how the human body reacts to internal and external changes, the text provides a deep understanding of how physiologic systems coordinate to maintain optimal health. Emphasizing normal physiology, discussions of pathophysiology are also included to show how altered functions are involved in disease processes. This fifth edition focuses on the physiologic principles key to understanding human function, and places them clearly in their fundamental context in clinical medicine. West’s Respiratory Physiology: The Essentials 11th Edition John B. West 978-1-9751-3926-1 / 232 pp / October 2020 For more than 40 years, West’s Respiratory Physiology: The Essentials has remained a critical resource for medical and allied health students learning the basics of respiratory physiology as well as an effective, quick review for residents and fellows in pulmonary medicine, critical care, anaesthesiology, and internal medicine as they prepare for licensing and other exams. The eleventh edition incorporates updates in many areas including blood- tissue gas exchange, mechanics, control of ventilation and the respiratory system under stress; all designed to aid clear understanding of pulmonary physiology.
