Anatomy and Physiology in Health and Illness [ PART 3. Intake of raw materials and elimination of waste]

---

Ross and Wilson has been a core text for students of anatomy and physiology for almost 40 years. This latest
edition is aimed at health care professionals including nurses, nursing students, students of the professions
allied to medicine, paramedics, ambulance technicians and complementary therapists. It retains the straightforward approach to the description of body systems and how they work, and the normal anatomy and physiology is followed by a section that covers common disorders and diseases: the pathology.

The human body is described system by system. The reader must, however, remember that physiology is an
integrated subject and that, although the systems are considered in separate chapters, they must all function
together for the human body to operate as a healthy unit. The first three chapters provide an overview of the body and describe its main constituents. A new section on introductory biochemistry is included, forming the basis of a deeper understanding of body function.

The later chapters are gathered together into three further sections, reflecting three areas essential for
normal body function: communication; intake of raw materials and elimination of waste; and protection and
survival. Much of the material for this edition has been extensively revised and rewritten. There is a new chapter on immunology, reflecting the growing importance of this subject in physiology.

The artwork has been completely redrawn using full colour, and many new diagrams have been included. A new list of common prefixes, suffixes and roots has been prepared for this edition, giving meanings and
providing examples of common terminology used in the study of anatomy and physiology. Some biological
values have been extracted from the text and presented as an Appendix for easy reference. In some cases, slightly different 'normals' may be found in other texts and used by different medical practitioners.
