A succinct, up-to-date, and clinically relevant review of human physiology – trusted by generations of students and clinicians

More than 600 full-color illustrations

For more than four decades, Ganong’s Review of Medical Physiology has been helping those in the medical field understand human and mammalian physiology. Applauded for its interesting and engagingly written style, Ganong’s concisely covers every important topic without sacrificing depth or readability and delivers more detailed, high-yield information per page than any other similar text or review.

Thoroughly updated to reflect the latest research and developments in important areas such as chronic pain, reproductive physiology, and acid-base homeostasis. Ganong’s Review of Medical Physiology incorporates examples from clinical medicine to illustrate important physiologic concepts. Whether you’re a student who needs an outstanding review for the USMLE or a physician who wants to keep pace with the ever-changing field of medical physiology, Ganong’s belongs on your desk.

NEW to this edition:

Section introductions that provide a foundation for the topic being discussed
Two types of review questions: end-of-chapter and board-style
Increased number of clinical cases and flow charts ? Expanded legends to help you learn more about the illustrations without having to refer back to the text

KIM E. BARRETT

Kim Barrett received her PhD in biological chemistry from University College London in 1982. Following postdoctoral training at the National Institutes of Health, she joined the faculty at the University of California, San Diego, School of Medicine in 1985, rising to her current rank of Professor of Medicine in 1996. Since 2006, she has also served the University as Dean of Graduate Studies. Her research interests focus on the physiology and pathophysiology of the intestinal epithelium, and how its function is altered by commensal, probiotics, and pathogenic bacteria as well as in specific disease states, such as inflammatory bowel diseases. She has published more than 200 articles, chapters, and reviews, and has received several honors for her research accomplishments including the Bowditch and Davenport Lectureships from the American Physiological Society and the degree of Doctor of Medical Sciences, honoris causa, from Queens University, Belfast. She has also been very active in scholarly editing, serving currently as the Deputy Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Physiology. She is also a dedicated and award-winning instructor of medical, pharmacy, and graduate students, and has taught various topics in medical and systems physiology to these groups for more than 20 years. Her efforts as a teacher and mentor will be recognized with the Bodil M. Schmidt-Nielson Distinguished Mentor and Scientist Award from the American Physiological Society in 2012. Her teaching experiences led her to author a prior volume (Gastrointestinal Physiology, McGraw-Hill, 2005) and she was honored to have been invited to take over the helm of Ganong in 2007 for the 23rd edition, and to have guided this new edition.

SUSAN M. BARMAN

Susan Barman received her PhD in physiology from Loyola University School of Medicine in Maywood, Illinois. Afterward she went to Michigan State University (MSU) where she is currently a Professor in the Department of Pharmacology/Toxicology and the Neuroscience Program. Dr Barman has had a career-long interest in neural control of cardiorespiratory function with an emphasis on the characterization and origin of the naturally occurring discharges of sympathetic and phrenic nerves. She was a recipient of a prestigious National Institutes of Health MERIT (Method to Extend Research in Time) Award. She is also a recipient of an Outstanding University Woman Faculty Award from the MSU Faculty Professional Women’s Association and an MSU College of Human Medicine Distinguished Faculty Award. She has been very active in the American Physiological Society (APS) and was recently elected to serve as its 85th President. She has also served as a Councillor as well as Chair of the Central Nervous System Section of APS, Women in Physiology Committee and Section Advisory Committee of APS. In her spare time, she enjoys daily walks, aerobic exercising, and mind-challenging activities like puzzles of various sorts.
SCOTT BOITANO

Scott Boitano received his PhD in genetics and cell biology from Washington State University in Pullman, Washington, where he acquired an interest in cellular signaling. He fostered this interest at University of California, Los Angeles, where he focused his research on second messengers and cellular physiology of the lung epithelium. He continued to foster these research interests at the University of Wyoming and at his current positions with the Department of Physiology and the Arizona Respiratory Center, both at the University of Arizona.

HEDDWEN L. BROOKS

Heddwen Brooks received her PhD from Imperial College, University of London and is an Associate Professor in the Department of Physiology at the University of Arizona (UA). Dr Brooks is a renal physiologist and is best known for her development of microarray technology to address in vivo signaling pathways involved in the hormonal regulation of renal function. Dr Brooks’ many awards include the American Physiological Society (APS) Lazaro J. Mandel Young Investigator Award, which is for an individual demonstrating outstanding promise in epithelial or renal physiology. In 2009, she received the APS Renal Young Investigator Award at the annual meeting of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology. Dr Brooks is currently Chair of the APS Renal Section Steering Committee. She serves on the Editorial Board of the American Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology (since 2001), and has served on study sections of the National Institutes of Health and the American Heart Association. She is a current member of the Merit Review Board for the Department of Veterans’ Affairs.
