en Limba Engleză Hardback – mai 2024
**Selected for Doody’s Core Titles® 2024 in Medical Physics**

Physics in Biology and Medicine, Sixth Edition includes new, revised material, and corresponding exercises on many exciting developments in the field. New sections cover biomechanics, biotribology, frictional properties of biological materials, 3-D printing and its use in medicine, new materials in dentistry, microfluidics, bioelectronic medicine, microsensors, and microscopy. This revised edition delivers helpful and engaging additions to the role and importance of physics in biology and medicine, including new coverage on metamaterials, metabolism, and environmental science. It is ideal for courses in biophysics, medical physics, and related subjects.


  • Provides practical information and techniques for building fundamental knowledge and applying physics and biology to the study of living systems
  • Includes numerous figures, examples, illustrative problems, and appendices which provide convenient access to the important concepts of mechanics, electricity, and optics used in the text
  • Features new and revised coverage on metamaterials, metabolism, and environmental science
  • Offers online support, including a full solutions manual for qualified instructors and additional programming resources (PowerPoints) for students

Recenzii

"The text provides clear descriptions of medical devices and techniques such as MRI, CAT scan and cochlear implant. It discusses biological systems that can be analyzed quantitatively and shows how advances in the life sciences have been aided by the knowledge of physical or engineering analysis techniques." --Anticancer Research, August 2013
Reviews from the 2e:"This is a book you should consider if you are teaching the one-semester premed course. This text could be used in two ways: 1) as a text for a one-term course in the physics of the body (without calculus) for non-physics majors in premed or allied health programs, or 2) as a supplementary text for the introductory physics course, particularly for premed students." --Russell Hobbie, University of Minnesota
"There is certainly a viable market (for this book), if not as a stand-alone physics text, as a collection of problems, examples, and discussions at the boundary between physics and biology and medicine. It is very well written; it is certainly accurate; and it is pretty complete." --David Cinabro, Wayne State University
