About The Product:

What keeps the human body alive, healthy, and functioning every second of every day? Discover the remarkable science behind the cells, organs, and biological systems that make life possible.

A TextBook of Physiology: The Science Behind Health, Growth, and Human Performance by Isaac Ott, A.M., M.D. is a timeless and comprehensive guide to the principles of human physiology. Written by a renowned physician and educator, this classic work explains how the body's intricate systems operate together to sustain life, maintain health, and support growth, movement, perception, and physical performance. Combining scientific precision with clear explanations, it remains an invaluable resource for students, educators, healthcare professionals, and anyone fascinated by the science of the human body.

Beginning with the cell—the fundamental unit of life—the book builds a complete understanding of human physiology by exploring the body's chemical composition, nutrition, digestion, absorption, blood, circulation, respiration, secretion, metabolism, body temperature regulation, muscular function, voice and speech, electrophysiology, and the complex workings of the nervous system. Dedicated chapters on the senses of touch, taste, smell, hearing, and vision reveal how the body interprets and responds to the surrounding world, while the concluding sections examine cranial nerves and human reproduction.

Throughout the book, Isaac Ott demonstrates how every organ system functions as part of an interconnected whole. Readers gain valuable insight into the physiological processes that regulate energy production, maintain internal balance, coordinate movement, transmit nerve impulses, and enable adaptation to changing environments. Rich scientific discussions, supported by numerous illustrations and experimental observations, transform complex biological concepts into accessible and meaningful knowledge.

More than a traditional medical textbook, A TextBook of Physiology provides the essential scientific foundation for understanding anatomy, biology, medicine, nursing, health sciences, exercise science, and human development. It encourages readers to appreciate how proper nutrition, circulation, respiration, metabolism, and nervous system function contribute to overall health and wellbeing.

Ideal for students of physiology, medicine, biology, nursing, anatomy, biomedical science, sports science, and healthcare, as well as curious readers interested in the extraordinary design of the human body, this carefully edited edition preserves Isaac Ott's original scholarship while presenting it in a clear, modern, and readerfriendly format.
