This superb team of authors and editors provides a highly readable account of 'how the body works.' The book is structured around body systems and includes relevant diseases to illustrate the consequences of what happens when a part of a particular system fails. This book is aimed at students in biological sciences, medicine, dentistry, nutrition, pharmacy, physiotherapy and physical education. The book focuses on the core information required by students but further information is provided in small print for the interested or more advanced student.
I have just spent the last month revising for my medical exams and have found Bray et al an indespensible component of my study regime.The book presents complex topics in a simple understandable format. I would not hesitate to recommend it to any of my fellow students.It gets a double thumbs up from me!!
Forget the rest, Bray is the best.

Bray et.al is the best physiology text avaliable today. This text clearly presents a range of physiological topics and is well written by the learned staff of the Otago University Physiology Dept. Prof. Bray is to be commended for his concise and accurate editorial style. I found the figures particularly understandable and loved thier minimalistic style. A MUST for every med student and those interested in how the body functions. I look forward to the next edition.
