This volume covers topics in physics as they apply to the life sciences, specifically medicine, physiology, nursing and other applied health fields. The text provides clear descriptions of medical devices and techniques such as MRI, CAT scan and cochlear implant. It discusses biological systems that can be analyzed quantitatively and shows how advances in the life sciences have been aided by the knowledge of physical or engineering analysis techniques.
