Gain an in-depth understanding of the concepts and processes of disease! Understanding Pathophysiology, 8th Edition provides a concise, comprehensive introduction to the way diseases work and how changes occur in the body as a result. With a clinically focused approach, the book begins by explaining cell structure and function.

This edition adds new algorithms, case studies for the Next-Generation NCLEX^� Exam, and updated content on COVID-19, obesity, and cancer epidemiology.
