Porth’s Pathophysiology, 10th Edition Tommiw L. Norris & Rupa Lalchandani

The 10th edition of Porth’s Pathophysiology: Concepts of Altered Health States continues a legacy of excellence by providing comprehensive, nursing focused coverage designed to help grasp both the physical and psychological aspects of altered health. The book’s unique emphasis on “concepts” of altered health states, as opposed to factual descrip- tions of diseases and disorders, helps students grasp both the physical and psychological aspects of altered health. Porth’s Pathophysiology: Concepts of Altered Health States is designed to make patho- physiology an exciting exploration that relates normal body functioning to the physiologic changes that occur as a result of disease, as well as the body’s remarkable ability to compensate for these changes. Indeed, it is these changes that represent the signs and symptoms of disease. Students develop a strong understanding of pathophysiology concepts with the easy to follow narrative that builds concepts on one another, defines words as content is presented, and reviews concepts from physiolo- gy, biochemistry, physics, and other sciences along the way. 978-1-4963-7759-3 / 1688 pp / Oct 2018
