This handbook serves as an informative guide on anatomy and physiology, particularly aimed at nurses and those seeking practical knowledge in the field. The book focuses on the intricate structures and functions of the human body, starting with a detailed examination of tissues and advancing through various body systems. The opening of the work sets the stage for a comprehensive exploration of anatomy and physiology. Fiske begins by defining the key concepts of anatomy and physiology, categorizing the body's chemical constitution and the various types of tissues that constitute it. The introductory chapter delves into the basic unit of life, the cell, and describes different tissue types—epithelial, connective, muscular, and nervous—along with their specific structures and functions. This foundational knowledge creates a coherent approach to understanding the relationships between bodily structures and their functions, establishing a framework for the later in-depth discussions that will follow in subsequent chapters.
