Guyton and Hall Textbook of Medical Physiology, 14th Edition

By John E. Hall, PhD

Description:
Celebrated for its clear narrative, engaging visuals, and consistent single-author voice, Guyton and Hall’s Textbook of Medical Physiology remains the leading text for mastering human physiology. Now in its 14th Edition, this trusted classic continues to provide clinically relevant, easily digestible explanations of the most essential concepts in physiology, making it the preferred resource for medical, dental, and health science students worldwide.

With a distinctive two-tone formatting approach that separates core content from supplementary clinical information, the text is both flexible for quick reference and robust for deep study. Each chapter is organized to emphasize the body's regulatory mechanisms and how physiological principles apply to real-world medical problems — creating a strong foundation for both preclinical and clinical learning.

This edition also includes access to a powerful online learning suite, featuring animations, self-assessment tools, interactive figures, and audio supplements that bring physiology to life.
