Introductory text for freshman to junior level students in human or animal physiology. The unique integrated approach helps students see the “big picture.” Silverthorn's problem-centered focus develops students' critical thinking and problem-solving skills by helping them connect facts and concepts and apply them to real-world situations. An emphasis on the changing nature of scientific knowledge includes chapter by chapter integration of the latest research in cellular and molecular biology. Each chapter presents physiology as a dynamic field with numerous unanswered questions that merit further investigation.

Review
"I am so pleased to finally find a text that uses an educational approach, rather than a spewing of abstractions. I don't, by the way, give out compliments to textbook authors often. She just hit my philosophy and has turned out what I think is an exceptional learning tool."— P.K. Hidy, Central Texas College
"I liked the way you explained how to read a graph in your first chapter. It is really interesting as I was just talking to [a colleague] about this very think."— Jack H. Wilmore, Texas A&M University
"I think [Human Physiology] is easy to read without being condescending and I like all the chain links and everything else you included to make it easier to find specific information."— Paul Skavland, Hampshire College
