This textbook from Elsevier is an English medium (अंग्रेजी माध्यम) book on Anatomy and Physiology, written by Anne Waugh and Allison Grant, prepared for nursing, physiotherapy, paramedical and allied health science students, and also widely used by undergraduate medical and dental students as a clear first reference while studying anatomy and physiology (शरीर रचना एवं शरीर क्रिया विज्ञान). This Fourteenth Edition, in its International Edition, keeps the approach that made Ross and Wilson a standard text — structure and function are taught together, system by system, in straightforward language, and each system closes with the effects of ageing on it and the diseases and disorders that arise when normal function is lost, so that the student moves from the healthy body to illness within the same chapter. The book covers the introduction to the human body and cells, tissues and organisation, the blood, the cardiovascular system, the lymphatic system, the nervous system, the special senses, the endocrine system, the respiratory system, the digestive system, the urinary system, fluid and electrolyte balance with acid-base balance (अम्ल-क्षार संतुलन), the skin, resistance and immunity, the musculoskeletal system, and the reproductive systems with an introduction to genetics. Its distinguishing feature is the teaching design — full-colour artwork and clinical photographs, learning outcomes at the start of each section, spotlight boxes and summary tables, and digital resources on the Evolve platform including self-assessment material. All content, terminology and explanations in this book are presented in the English language only.
