With easy-to-read, in-depth descriptions of disease, disease etiology, and disease processes, Pathophysiology: The Biologic Basis for Disease in Adults and Children, 7th Edition helps you understand the most important and the most complex pathophysiology concepts. More than 1,200 full-color illustrations and photographs make it easier to identify normal anatomy and physiology, as well as alterations of function. This edition includes a NEW Epigenetics and Disease chapter along with additional What’s New boxes highlighting the latest advances in pathophysiology. Written by well-known educators Kathryn McCance and Sue Huether, and joined by a team of expert contributors, this resource is the most comprehensive and authoritative pathophysiology text available!

    • Unparalleled coverage of disease processes makes this text the most comprehensive pathophysiology text available.
    • The largest full-color art program in the field illustrates the clinical manifestations of diseases and disease processes
    • Consistent presentations of each disease with pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, and evaluation and treatment help you find the information you need quickly and easily.
    • Ten separate pediatric chapters cover the pathophysiologic effects on children.
    • Aging content is highlighted throughout the text.
    • An Introduction to Pathophysiology section at the beginning of the text provides a solid start to the basics of the study of disease.
    • Algorithms and flowcharts of diseases and disorders illustrate the disease process in an easy-to-understand format.
    • Nutrition and Disease boxes present evidence-based information on the relationship between health promotion through diet and disease.
    • Updated content on leukocytes in pain modulation, seizure disorders, brain injuries and disorders, acute encephalopathies, reproductive disorders, and much more keep you at the cutting edge of this constantly changing field.
    • What’s New? boxes highlight the most current research and findings to ensure you have the most up-to-date information.
    • New animations, review questions, Key Points, and an audio glossary have been added to the Evolve companion website to strengthen your understanding of key concepts.
    • Media Resources Lists encourage you to develop a study plan to master the important content in each chapter.
