Physiological Determinants of Exercise Tolerance in Humans
This work describes the physiological and biochemical responses to exercise. It examines the nature of the fatigue process and the adaptations which occur in response to training and how these responses are influenced by a variety of environmental factors.
Modeling and Control of Ventilation
The origins of what have come to be known as the "Oxford" Conferences on modelling and the control of breathing can be traced back to a discussion between Dan Cunningham and Richard Hercynski at a conference dinner at the Polish Academy of Sciences in 1971. Each felt that they had benefited from the different perspectives from which the topic of ventilatory control was approached - predominantly physiological in the case of Dr Cunningham and predominantly mathematical in the case of Dr Hercynski. Their judgement at that time was that a conference on the control of breathing which allowed investigators with these different (but related) scientific perspectives to present and discuss their wor...
The Control of Breathing in Man
Based on the Physiological Society's Teaching Symposium on "the Control of Breathing in Man" held at St. George's Hospital Medical School, London, Feb. 17, 1983.
Exercise
Fifteen contributed chapters deal with the major aspects of the effects of exercise on the respiratory system in health and disease. The chapters are organized into a logically sequential scheme of topics: beginning with pulmonary mechanics; continuing with pulmonary gas exchange, the pulmonary and
Oxygen Uptake Kinetics in Sport, Exercise and Medicine
Despite its crucial importance, scientists interested in the limitations of human physical performance have only just started to give the field of oxygen uptake kinetics the attention it deserves. Understanding the principal determinant of the oxygen uptake kinetics is fundamental to improving human performance or the quality of life. This book provides a detailed overview of the current state of knowledge of this emerging field of study, and features: * an introduction to oxygen uptake kinetics and historical development of the discipline * measurement and analysis of oxygen uptake kinetics * control of and limitations to oxygen uptake kinetics * applications of oxygen uptake kinetics in a range of human populations. Oxygen Uptake Kinetics in Sport, Health and Medicine is richly illustrated and structured to enable easy access of information and represents an invaluable resource for students and researchers in exercise physiology, as well as for respiratory physiologists and pulmonary clinicians.
Exercise Physiology
This history of exercise physiology is written from a systems perspective. It examines the responses of key physiological systems to the conditions of acute and chronic exercise, as well as their coupling with integrative responses.
Pulmonary Biology in Health and Disease
Pulmonary Biology in Health and Disease was conceived as a companion to a handful of expensive, multivolume textbooks. This is part of the promising trend to publish shorter textbooks on the subjects of lung biology and remodeling. Whoever is familiar with human biology and the far-reaching consequences of the genome and postgenome revolutions is apt to concede that the centerpiece in remodeling lies in the ?eld of m- ecular cardiobiology. The ?eld of molecular cardiobiology includes the syndrome of chronic heart failure as well as ischemic cardioprotection. By analogy, the centerpiece in pulmonobiology is chronic asthma. Key topics in the present volume include s- naling mechanisms regulati...
