Eric P. Widmaier, Hershel Raff, Kevin T. Strang, "Vander et al's Human Physiology:The Mechanisms of Body Function"

The purpose of this book remains what it was in the first eight editions “to present the fundamental principles and facts of human physiology in a format that is suitable for undergraduate students regardless of academic backgrounds or fields of study “ liberal arts, biology, nursing, pharmacy, or, other allied health professions. The book is also suitable for dental students and many medical students have also used previous editions to lay the foundation for the more detailed coverage they receive in their courses.

This is the best book I've ever seen in Physiology. I enjoyed very much while studying physiology from this book for 2 years.

Overview

The ninth edition of this classic text has been entrusted into the capable hands of a dynamic new author team. Eric Widmaier, Hershel Raff, and Kevin Strang have taken on the challenge of maintaining the strengths and reputation that have long been the hallmark of Human Physiology: The Mechanisms of Body Function. The fundamental purpose of this textbook has remained undeniably the same: to present the principles and facts of human physiology in a format that is suitable for undergraduates regardless of academic background or field of study. Human Physiology, ninth edition, carries on the tradition of clarity and accuracy, while refining and updating the content to meet the needs of today's instructors and students. The ninth edition features a streamlined, clinically oriented focus to the study of human body systems. Widmaier is considered higher level than Human Physiology by Stuart Fox, due to its increased emphasis on the mechanisms of body functions.
