Netter's Essential Physiology, 3rd Edition, is a concise and clinically oriented textbook that effectively helps students grasp essential physiology concepts quickly and easily. Illustrated by renowned medical illustrator Frank H. Netter, MD, and artists in his tradition, the book combines clear and concise prose with clinical correlations, light bulb side notes, end-of-chapter questions, and helpful videos to ensure a comprehensive understanding of complex content. It serves as an ideal text for a basic understanding of physiology, as an overview of the subject, or as a supplement to lectures.

The book utilizes beautifully clear drawings and diagrams from the Netter collection to teach key points quickly, effectively, and memorably. Light bulb boxes are included to foster a-ha learning moments, and expanded pathophysiology content with more clinical correlates, including the fallacy of race-dependent differences in normal GFR values and pulmonary function, is provided. New illustrations for GI physiology and updated figures throughout better reflect the diversity in human populations. Additionally, the book includes more practice questions per section and provides video tutorials that explain challenging but essential physiology concepts. An eBook version is included with purchase, allowing students to access all of the text, figures, and references, plus videos and additional self-assessment questions, with the ability to search, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud.

For instructors, the Evolve Instructor site with image bank is available, providing access to additional resources and materials.
