Add to basket"Bioelectricity: A Quantitative Approach" by Robert Plonsey and Roger C. Barr is a hardcover edition, 2nd printing (July 1991) published by Plenum Press. The book is in Good+ condition. The covers are well-preserved with only light rubbing to corners and indented spine ends. The binding is square and tight. There are two small paperclip impressions visible at the top of the text block. The front edge of the text block bears the former owner's name printed in large block letters. There is light abrasion to the front flyleaf and front paste-down (inside the front cover). The interior pages are sparsely marked on fewer than ten pages, otherwise clean and bright.This text serves as an introduction to electrophysiology, employing a quantitative approach. The initial chapter provides a summary of the mathematics required in the subsequent chapters. The second chapter offers a concise overview of the general principles of electrical fields and current flow, applicable to biological environments. The core material of the book spans the third to seventh chapters, covering topics such as the description of membrane voltages, action potentials, propagation of action potentials, and the response of fibers to artificial stimuli.The book delves into the study of cardiac and neural electrophysiology in subsequent chapters, offering a detailed exploration of the application of fundamental principles to these areas. It also includes a chapter on recent developments in membrane biophysics. The study of electrophysiology has evolved rapidly, thanks to precise experimental studies and the development of increasingly accurate theoretical concepts. This book provides a comprehensive foundation for understanding various electrophysiological problems. The book will be carefully packaged for shipment, and an USPS electronic tracking number will be issued free of charge. If you need more information or pictures, feel free to contact me.

Praise for Previous Editions:
"This fine text, by two well-known bioengineering professors at Duke University, is an introduction to electrophysiology aimed at engineering students. Most of its chapters cover basic topics in electrophysiology: the electrical properties of the cell membrane, action potentials, cable theory, the neuromuscular junction, extracellular fields, and cardiac electrophysiology. The authors discuss many topics that are central to biophysics and bioengineering [and] the quantitative methods [they] teach will surely be productive in the future."
IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology
"The authors’ goal in producing this book was to provide an introductory text to electrophysiology, based on a quantitative approach. In attempting to achieve this goal, therefore, the authors have opened the book with a useful, and digestible, introduction to various aspects of the mathematics relevant to this field, including vectors, introduction to Laplace, Gauss’s theorem, and Green’s theorem. This book will be useful for students in medical physics and biomedical engineering wishing to enter the field of electrophysiological investigation. It will also be helpful for biologists and physiologists who wish to understand the mathematical treatment of the processes and signals at the center of the interesting interdisciplinary field."
