Knowledge of these mechanisms serves patients when the task is to develop a suitable therapy, alleviate symptoms, and avert imminent resultant damage caused by the disease. Our aim in writing this Atlas of Pathophysiology was to address students of medicine, both prior to and during their clinical training, and also qualified doctors as well as their coworkers in the caring and therapeutic professions and to provide them with a clear overview in words and pictures of the core knowledge of modern pathophysiology and aspects of pathobiochemistry. Readers must themselves be the judge of the extent to which we have achieved this; we would be happy to receive any critical comments and ideas. The book begins with the fundamentals of the cell mechanism and abnormalities thereof as well as cell division, cell death, tumor growth, and aging. It then covers a wide range of topics, from abnormalities of the heat and energy balance, via the pathomechanisms of diseases of the blood, lungs, kidneys, gastrointestinal tract, heart and circulation, and of the metabolism, including endocrinal abnormalities, diseases of the musculature, the senses, and the peripheral and central nervous system. Following a short review of the fundamentals of physiology, the causes, course, symptoms, and arising complications of disease processes are described along with, if necessary, the possibilities of therapeutic intervention. The selective further reading list will assist the interested reader wishing to gain more indepth knowledge, and a detailed subject index, which is also a list of abbreviations, aims to assist rapid findings of topics and terminology. This Atlas would have been inconceivable without the great commitment and outstanding expertise and professionalism of the graphic designers, Ms. Astried Rothenburger and Mr. Rüdiger Gay. We would like to extend our warmest gratitude to them for their renewed productive co-operation. Our thanks also go to our publishers, in particular Dr. Liane Platt-Rohloff, Dr. Clifford Bergman, and Mr. Gert Krüger for their friendly guidance, and Ms. Marianne Mauch for her exceptional skill and enthusiasm in editing the German edition of the Atlas. Ms. Annette Ziegler did a wonderful job with the setting, Ms. Koppenhöfer and Ms. Loch sorted and compiled the subject index with great care. Throughout all the years it took for this book to come into being, Dr. Heidi Silbernagl constantly stood by us and offered us her loyal and critical opinion of our pictures and manuscripts. Several colleagues were likewise very helpful. First and foremost we would like to thank Prof. Niels Birbaumer for his valuable advice concerning the chapter ‘Nervous System, Musculature’, but we also thank Prof. Michael Gekle, Dr. Erich Gulbins, Dr. Albrecht Lepple- Wienhues, Dr. Carsten Wagner, and Dr. Siegfried Waldegger. Finally, we are grateful to Prof. Eva-Bettina Bröcker, Prof. Andreas Warnke, and Prof. Klaus Wilms for being so kind as to allow us to reproduce their photographs here. We hope that readers will find in this Atlas what they are looking for, that what we have attempted to say in words and pictures is understandable, and that they enjoy using this book throughout their studies and their working life.
