Abstract:	A concise, easy-to-understand introduction to the fundamentals, Gould's Pathophysiology for the Health Professions, 5th Edition helps you learn essential concepts of major diseases/disorders and disease processes. Continuing in its well-known tradition of readability and vivid, full-color illustrations, the text is updated with the latest research and trends in human disease. Disorders are described by body system, with coverage of the interactions between systems, and special features help you apply the material to real-life situations. No matter which healthcare field you may enter, Gould's Pathophysiology prepares you for the conditions encountered in clinical practice. New to this edition: NEW Defense/Protective Mechanisms section consolidates coverage of inflammation and healing, infection, and immunity. UPDATED chapters are reorganized with a building-block method that presents content in a more logical and systematic approach. UPDATED format for individual disorders includes 1) background, 2) pathophysiology, 3) etiology, 4) signs and symptoms, 5) diagnoses, 6) possible related complications/disorders, and 7) treatments/research. NEW! Pathophysiology of Body Systems chapters begin with a brief review of normal anatomy and physiology and show the interrelatedness and the interactions between systems. NEW authors bring a fresh and contemporary approach to the content while keeping true to the integrity of Barbara Gould's original text.
