This book provides an in-depth overview of the body’s major systems, focusing on their structure and function. It covers systems such as the cardiovascular, respiratory, nervous, and digestive systems, explaining how they work together to maintain homeostasis. The book also discusses common diseases and disorders affecting each system, as well as treatment and management strategies. Special attention is given to the physiological processes that underlie health and disease. This book is an essential resource for students and professionals studying human anatomy and physiology.
Maeve Buckley explores the toxicological interactions between various body systems and their functions, focusing on how toxic exposures affect physiological processes and overall health. Her research investigates the impact of chemicals on systems such as the nervous, cardiovascular, and endocrine systems, assessing their roles in disease development and functional impairments. Maeve has developed integrative models to study the systemic effects of toxins, enhancing the understanding of multi-system toxicological impacts. She has published extensively on the mechanisms of toxin interactions with body systems, highlighting the importance of holistic approaches in toxicological assessments.
