Preface to the Third EditionWe are delighted that the physiological community so eagerly welcomedthe Second Edition of our book. The 3-fold philosophy that has guided usin the previous editions has endured as we prepared the Third Edition.First, we combine the expertise of several authors with the consistencyof a single pen. In the First Edition, we achieved this singleness of pen bysitting—shoulder to shoulder—at a computer as we rewrote the primarycopy of our authors, line by line. By the time we began editing the ThirdEdition, one of us had moved from New Haven to Cleveland. Even so,we continued to edit jointly and in real time—monitor to monitor—usingdesktop-sharing software. After more than two decades, we have becomeso accustomed to each other's writing styles that we can literally finisheach other's sentences.Second, we still integrate physiological concepts from the level of DNAand epigenetics to the human body, and everything in between.Third, we complete the presentation of important physiologicalprinciples by pairing them with illustrations from pathophysiology,thereby putting physiology in a clinical context.In this Third Edition, we have updated the entire book to reflect newmolecular insights. In the process, we have shortened the printed versionof the book by 40 pages. The Third Edition contains 20 new or redrawnfigures as well as enhancements to 125 others. Similarly, we includedover 190 tables. In the First Edition, we launched the concept of onlineonly Notes—electronic footnotes that were available on the StudentConsult website. These Notes (indicated by icons in the print version ofthe book) amplify concepts in the text, provide details and derivations ofequations, add clinical illustrations, and include interesting facts (e.g.,biographies of famous physiologists). With the increased use of onlinematerials and eBooks, our readers may welcome our updating of theprevious Notes as well as a 13% increase in the total number of Notes forthe Third Edition, for a total of about 750. In the Second Edition, we

provided the reader with numerous crosslinks to explanatory materialswithin the book by providing chapter numbers. In the Third Edition, wegreatly expand the number of such crosslinks—but now refer the readerto specific pages in the print, and link the reader to specific paragraphs inthe eBook. The eBook provides references to scientific literature.In Section II (Physiology of Cells and Molecules), fresh insights led tosubstantial revisions in Chapter 4 (Regulation of Gene Expression),including the subchapter on epigenetics, and another onposttranslational modifications. Moreover, advances in physiologicalgenomics and the understanding of genetic diseases led to majorexpansions of two tables—one on the SLC family of transporters (Table5-4 in the chapter on Transport of Solutes and Water) and the other on ionchannels (Table 6-2 in the chapter on Electrophysiology of the CellMembrane). In both tables, our updates help the reader navigate throughwhat sometimes are multiple systems of terminology.In Section III (The Nervous System), new molecular developments ledto major changes in Chapter 15 (Sensory Transduction), including thetransduction of taste. In Section IV (The Cardiovascular System), we haveimproved the molecular underpinning of the ionic currents in Chapter 21(Cardiac Electrophysiology and the Electrocardiogram). In Section VI (TheUrinary System), we welcome Peter Aronson as a new co-author.Improved molecular insights led to major improvements in Chapter 36,including the subchapters on urea, urate, phosphate, and calcium. InSection VII (The Gastrointestinal System), Chapter 43 (Pancreatic andSalivary Glands) underwent significant modernization, including anexpansion of the treatment of salivary glands. In Chapter 45 (NutrientDigestion and Absorption), we welcome Charles Mansbach as a new coauthor. Section VIII (The Endocrine System) underwent significantupdating, including the treatment of phosphate handling in Chapter 52(The Parathyroid Glands and Vitamin D). In Section IX (The ReproductiveSystem), we welcome two new authors. Sam Mesiano extensivelyreworked Chapters 53 (Sexual Differentiation) through Chapter 56(Fertilization, Pregnancy, and Lactation), and George Lister has similarlyrewritten Chapter 57 (Fetal and Neonatal Physiology). Finally, in Section X(Physiology of Everyday Life), we welcome Shaun Morrison, whoextensively rewrote Chapter 59 (Regulation of Body Temperature). Chapter

62 (The Physiology of Aging) underwent extensive changes, including newtreatments of necroptosis and frailty.

The eBookAlthough you can still enjoy our book while reading the print version,you can also access the extended content at your computer via thewebsite www.StudentConsult.com. The eBook is also available throughthe Inkling app on tablets and smart phones. Regardless of the platformfor accessing the eBook, the student may access Notes, crosslinks, andreferences as noted above, and also can “follow” professors and see theirhighlights and annotations within the text.

Marybeth Thiel—Senior ContentDevelopment Specialist—was the project's communications hub,responsible for coordinating all parties working on the textbook, and forassembling the many elements that comprised the final product. Hermeticulous care was indispensible. We thank David Stein—Senior ProjectManager—for overseeing production of the textbook. Striving forconsistency, Elsevier did us the favor of assigning a single copyeditor—Janet E. Lincoln—to the entire project. We were especially impressedwith her meticulous copyediting. Moreover, because she read themanuscript as a dedicated student, she identified several logical orscientific errors, including inconsistencies between chapters.Finally, we thank four editorial assistants.
