Principle of Human Physiology for Paramedical Courses

This is classic manual with easy to use outline presentation on the clinical methods for medical students from beginning onwards. This is an indispensable book with clinical photographs of common diseases with tables

Anatomy and physiology are closely interrelated subjects. This book covers both the subjects in a correlated manner so as to give a holistic view to the students. The text has been written in a simple language and concise manner with various levels of headings and subheadings. The text has been supplemented with a number of easily reproducible colour diagrams providing a photogenic memory to the reader. In addition, there are tables,flowcharts, graphs, etc. for comprehensive understanding of the two subjects. The clinical aspects given in the text provide a birds eyeview of many of the clinical conditions which the nursing students would observe during their training period. The book aims an ideal text for laying a strong foundation for the students of Auxiliary Nursing and Midwifery (ANM) and General Nursing and Midwifery (GNM) courses. It can also serve as an indispensable text for students of courses in allied health sciences.

This book presents uncommon, common and spot diagnostic cases in a lucid manner so that these are easy to study, imbibe and reproduce in theory and practical examinations. The book will serve as a handy text-cum-reference for undergraduate and postgraduate students, and as a ready reckoner for ophthalmologists in practice as well as young faculty engaged in teaching case studies.

This book contains MCQs with stress more on concepts than on dry and useless information. This book would serve another important purpose. Through MCQs many facts and concepts of physiology have been highlighted which a students is likely to miss during cursory reading of the textbook. This book shall also help in the self-assessment of the student after he/she has read the topic from a text book of physiology.

The author, Dr Eranthi Samarakoon, being a dedicated and a committed teacher, understands the difficulties faced by the students ever since the single best answer (SBA) questions were introduced in medical curriculum in many countries around the world. She realises that the successful preparation for a professional examination requires understanding the style of the questions asked and the process of the examination. With these goals in mind, she has produced this set of two books containing a large number of questions in obstetrics (214) and gynaecology (214) to help the students in facing the examination with confidence. Eranthi Samarakoon MBBS, MS(SM Lanka), FRCOG (UK) is a senior lecturer and consultant obstetrician and gynaecologist at the Peradeniya University and the Teaching Hospital, Peradeniya, Sri Lanka. She obtained second class honors at the final MBBS examination and came first in the order of merit at the Master of Surgery in obstetrics and gynaecology (Sri Lanka) part 1 and part 2 examinations. She completed the final year of her postgraduate training at St Mary?s Hospital, Manchester, and got through the MRCOG (UK) examination at the first attempt. She was Board certified as a consultant obstetrician and gynaecologist in Sri Lanka in 1983 and has been in active practice since then. This book is based on over three decades of experience as an active clinician and academician who has been teaching medical students for the final MBBS examination and training postgraduate students for the Doctor of Medicine (MD) in obstetrics and gynaecology (Sri Lanka) and the MRCOG (UK) examinations. She has been an examiner for the final MBBS examination in all eight universities in Sri Lanka and for the MD obstetrics and gynaecology (Sri Lanka) examination.
