Study Notes
Human Physiology: Eighth Edition
- Textbook by Dee Unglaub Silverthorn, Ph.D.
- Eighth edition
- Integrated approach
- Focus on core concepts, not just memorization
- Utilizes active learning: Activities, questions, and videos to enhance understanding
- Emphasizes integration of organ systems
- Includes problem-solving scenarios, case studies, and critical thinking activities to assist students
- Various learning tools to enhance understanding
- Key concepts like communication, energy, structure-function, and homeostasis are frequently used across the book.
- Dedicated to colleagues who provided feedback for the first edition
Key Features of the Book and Learning Process
- Top 10 ways to succeed in classes that use active learning
- Chapter-specific learning outcomes to guide study
- Running problem- physiology-related scenario that reinforces learning throughout the chapter
- Action Video clips- on online resources (Mastering A&P).
- Concepts check questions - reinforce learning during the chapter
- Review questions
- Interactive Physiology (IP2)- online resources with interactive features and modules
- PhysioEx Laboratory Simulations - laboratory-type experiments
- Essentials figures. Concise summaries of chapters' essence
- Anatomy summaries- visual overviews of physiological structures
- Review Figures showing foundational concepts.
- Customizable PowerPoint lecture outlines and other ancillary resources- to aid in learning
- Web-based resources- to engage an integrated approach for learning physiology
Unit Organization
- Divided into four units:
- Unit 1: Basic Cell Processes: Integration and Coordination
- Unit 2: Homeostasis and Control
- Unit 3: Integration of Function
- Unit 4: Metabolism, Growth, and Aging
- Each unit has multiple chapters focusing on different organ systems and integrated concepts
