Pathophysiology: A Practical Approach, Fifth Edition provides an innovative, practice-ready, approach to foundational pathophysiology for pre-licensure nursing students. The text is organized by body system and is presented in an easy-to-read format with vibrant graphics and practice tools. Dr. Story takes a student-focused approach to the challenging subject. She organized the content into topical chapters that walk students through their base knowledge of A&P, what can go wrong with the human body, how to identify it, and what to do about it. This st-udent-friendly approach empowers readers to take a more active role in learning pathophysiology. Students and faculty praise Pathophysiology: A Practical Approach for its innovative presentation, helpful Next Generation NCLEX-style questions, approachable reading style, dynamic images, and coverage of current research.
