Chapter Learning Objectives highlight key concepts at a glance. Problems and Clinical Cases with Answers to Problems reinforce fundamental physiological concepts. Summary of Important Concepts boxes provide bulleted quick-review of essential chapter content. Multiple-choice Review Questions and Answers to Review Questions (with full explanations for each answer choice) enable self-assessment and alert you to areas requiring further study. A chapter on Cardiovascular Integration, Adaptation, and Pathophysiology integrates cardiovascular concepts in the context of normal and clinically relevant conditions.
