About the Book

"Pathophysiology: Clinical Concepts of Disease Processes, 6th Edition" is a comprehensive textbook with a traditional focus and presentation of content. It uses a body-system approach to studying diseases, and integrates basic science with clinical practice, focusing on the alterations in biological processes that affect the body's equilibrium. Since the content is not specific to nursing, the text can be used in biology and allied health departments as well as nursing. Price Wilson has had a loyal following of users since publication of its first edition. Favorite features are readability, shorter, more focused chapters, and end-of-chapter study questions.
