Nurse education has changed radically in recent years. One of the major shifts in the curriculum has been a much greater emphasis on physiology and a down-grading of pure anatomy. This book was developed in response to this change in nurse education. This highly innovative textbook is suitable for the Project 2000 nursing courses. (The 'Life sciences relevant to nursing practice' segment of the Common Foundation Programme (CFP) is its natural home.) Unlike older texts, the emphasis is firstly on the physiology, which is covered in the depth now required by student nurses. The book also gives a basic grounding in anatomy, showing especially how anatomy relates to and helps explain the physiology. The whole text is made relevant to nursing practice, by using 'nursing application boxes', which show the application of the science to the clinical situation. This is a book which will not overwhelm student nurses with its level of detail, but will provide them with a sound understanding of physiology and enable them to apply what they have learned to their practice. It is an attractive and highly structured text from a nursing professional, who is also a gifted writer. The level of understanding required and level of detail offered directly meet the new Project 2000 student nurses needs in this subject area Sigrid Rutishauser is a highly respected author - her style of writing is clear and lucid The text links nursing to general health using ' nurse application boxes', all of which have been written by nurse contributors Key points summarized at chapter ends - to maximise learning efficiency Margin questions allow the reader to self-assess as they go Lavishly illustrated - over 600 colour drawings
