Introduction to Human Disease

Advances and new developments in medicine are the basis of this new edition of An Introduction to Human Disease, with coverage of the latest diseases and expanded student and instructor resources. The fifth edition takes a systems approach to presenting human disease in a thoroughly revised, full-color, highly illustrated new edition written for Allied Health and Nursing students. The text is organized into two main sections: the first covers general concepts and diseases that affect the body as a whole; the second takes a systems approach which details disorders typically affecting specific organ systems.
