Instructor Information
Quick Actions (Only for Validated Instructor Accounts):
Fox’s Human Physiology, was created for the one-semester Human Physiology course, often taken by allied health and biology students. Clear explanations and a solid learning framework based on integrating clinically germane information with knowledge of the body’s physiological processes have made Human Physiology a market-leading text. The new 16th edition continues the author’s tradition of readability and currency of information with the most updated, concise, and student-oriented presentation. This revision brings a new perspective from co-author, Krista Rompolski, an active physiology educator.
