Description

Quantitative Human Physiology: An Introduction, winner of a 2018 Textbook Excellence Award (Texty), is the first text to meet the needs of the undergraduate bioengineering student who is being exposed to physiology for the first time but requires a more analytical/quantitative approach. This book explores how component behavior produces system behavior in physiological systems. Through text explanation, figures, and equations, it provides the engineering student with a basic understanding of physiological principles with an emphasis on quantitative aspects. The 3rd edition has been revised with the inclusion of a full new unit on The Integument and Integrated Physiology, more and expanded problem sets, and improved illustrations.

Author Biography:

Dr. Feher is Professor Emeritus of Physiology and Biophysics at Virginia Commonwealth University. He received his Ph.D. from Cornell University, and has research interests in the quantitative understanding of the mechanisms of calcium uptake and release by the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum, in the mechanisms of calcium transport across the intestine, and in muscle contraction and relaxation. Dr. Feher developed a course in Introductory Quantitative Physiology at VCU and has been course coordinator for more than a decade. He also teaches muscle and cell physiology to medical and graduate students and is course coordinator for the Graduate Physiology survey course in physiology given at VCU’s School of Medicine. Dr. Woon Chow is Assistant Professor of Pathology and Ophthalmology at Virginia Commonwealth University. He also serves as Associate Director of Pathology Informatics. Dr. Chow pursued his undergraduate, graduate, medical, and graduate medical education at VCU and VCU Health System. He obtained his dual undergraduate degrees in biomedical engineering and physics in 2003 and completed the combined MD-PhD Program, earning his medical and graduate degrees in 2011. After completing his residency training in anatomic and clinical pathology in 2015, he pursued subspecialty training in neuropathology at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, Tennessee. In 2017, Dr. Chow returned and joined the faculty at VCU. Dr. Chow actively participates in the teaching of central nervous system anatomy and physiology, neuropathology, and ophthalmic pathology to trainees at all levels. Dr Charles Anderson is Assistant Professor in the Department of Physiology and Biophysics at Virginia Commonwealth University. Dr Anderson earned his BS in physics at the University of Richmond. He earned his MS in biomedical engineering and his PhD in physiology from Virginia Commonwealth University. He is currently course director for and lecturer of physiology courses at the undergraduate, graduate, and professional level at Virginia Commonwealth University. His research interests include the regulation of contraction of intestinal smooth muscle.
