5.0 out of 5 stars For all in nursing, allied health sciences, Jan 10 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Physics for the Health Sciences (Paperback)

This book is a masterful collection of physics-related science and principles that directly relate to anyone who will be working in a hospital, clinic or health environment.

The text itself is nicely done, with examples, charts, and diagrams. Even better, each chapter has its own review questions, example problems, and references.

Chapters include: Electrical Safety in the Hospital, Introduction to Electricity and Magnetism; Internal Energy, Heat and Temperature; Molecular Phenomena Related to Biological Processes; Further Medical Applications of Pressures in Fluids; The Effects of Heat Energy; Bioelectricity; Physics of Hearing; Physics of Vision; Light and Modern Physics; Nuclear Radiation; Pressure and the Circulatory System; Properties of Liquids; Properties of Gases; Description of Motion; Causes of Motion (which includes "Clinical Applications of Gravity").

This book is NOT just another physics book with biology tacked on. This one, like very few others, is directed at students in the health-related fields.
