It covers the physical phenomena of electricity, pressure, and flow along with the adaptation of the physics of the phenomena to the special conditions and constraints of biological systems. While the text focuses on human biological systems, some of the principles also apply to plants, bacteria, and other animals.\n\nThe first section of the book presents a general introduction to physiological systems and describes specialized methods used to record electrical even.
