St. Louis, Mo. : Mosby, 2004, 2004. Fine. 3rd edition ; 1st printing ; with unopened CD ; xxiii, 1236 p. : ill. (chiefly col.) ; 28 cm. + 1 CD-ROM (4 3/4 in.) ; ISBN: 0323023681 (alk. paper); 9780323023689 (alk. paper); National Library: 101190670; LCCN: 2003-_x000D_ 65146 ; OCLC: 53021647 ; "The most current information on the mechanisms, manifestations, and treatments of disease are clearly and concisely presented. Accessible writing, numerous illustrations in full-color, and complete and separate treatment of pediatric pathophysiology are the hallmarks of this popular and respected text. The new third edition features extensively revised and updated content and an enhanced art program.Part One presents the general principles of pathophysiology, including cell injury and repair; genetics; fluids and electrolytes, acids and bases; immunity, inflammation, and infection; stress; and cancer. Part Two is organized by body system, and for each system it covers normal anatomy and physiology, alterations of function in adults, and alterations of function in children." ; Contents: Cellular biology / Kathryn L.
