Laboratory Guide to Human Physiology: Concepts and Clinical Applications
by Stuart Ira FoxThe seventh edition of this laboratory guide, like the previous editions, is a "stand-alone" human physiology manual that can be used in conjunction with any human physiology textbook. It includes a wide variety of exercises that support most areas covered in a human physiology course, thus affording instructors the flexibility to choose those exercises best suited to meet their particular instructional goals. Background information that is needed to understand the principles and significance of each exercise is presented in a concise manner, so that little or no support is needed from the lecture text. <p><p> The lecture and laboratory segments of the human physiology course, however, are most effectively wedded when they cover topics in a similar manner and sequence. Thus, this laboratory guide is best used in conjunction with my textbook, Human Physiology, fifth edition (Wm. C. Brown Publishers, 1996). <p> The laboratory experiences provided by this guide allow students to become familiar--in an intimate way that cannot be achieved by lecture and text alone--with many fundamental concepts of physiology. In addition to providing hands-on experience in applying physiological concepts, the laboratory sessions allow students to interact with the subject matter, other students, and the instructor in a personal, less formal way. Active learning is required to perform the exercises and to complete the laboratory report at the end of each exercise.
