This is an interactive multimedia learning and teaching resource that provides a complete, easy-to-use, up-to-date survey of the basic principles of human physiology and functional anatomy. Developed by the faculty in the Department of Physiology and Endocrinology at the Medical College of Georgia, it represents a breakthrough in human physiology education. The unique software combines descriptive text, full colour graphics and animations, clinical problems, full motion video, audio, and a self-testing question bank into the first fully integrated human physiology program. The 77 chapters are organised into 8 sections: Membrane transport and bioelectric activity, Muscle physiology, Cardiac and circulatory physiology, Respiratory physiology, Endocrinology, Gastrointestinal physiology, Renal physiology, Brain function (nervous system).
