Space Physiology and Medicine Gebunden

As space medicine evolved from the late 1950s onward the need arose for a ready reference for students and practitioners on the basic concepts of this new specialty. Through three editions edited by leaders in the development of space medicine this classic text has met the need. This fourth edition of Space Physiology and Medicine provides succinct evidence-based summaries of the current knowledge base in space medicine and serves as a source of information on the space environment responses and practices. Additionally there is extensive online material available for each chapter featur ing overviews and self-study questions.
