Content
Written at a graduate level, the Second Edition of ACSM's Advanced Exercise Physiology enables you to develop an in-depth understanding of exercise physiology along with its related topics and applications. You’ll discover both the immediate and long-term effects of exercise on individual body systems, including the nervous, skeletal, muscular, respiratory, cardiovascular, and gastrointestinal systems. In addition, the text emphasizes how each body system’s physiological response to exercise is interdependent. Moreover, it examines how these physiological responses are affected by heat, cold, hypoxia, microgravity, rest, and hyperbaria .This Second Edition features a team of international authors and editors whose expertise spans general physiology, exercise physiology, and research. Together, they have substantially revised, updated, and reorganized the text. Features: • Written by international experts with representative expertise in physiology, exercise physiology, and research. • Test Your Understanding checkpoints provide questions after sections to make students stop and think critically about material they’re reading to enhance and ensure understanding. • Key Point boxes are mini summaries/lists of key points after various major sections within the chapters. • Milestone of Discovery vignettes identify landmark experiments, their results, and the impact on exercise physiology. • Abbreviations are listed at the beginning of each chapter • Chapter Summary Contents Chapter 1 Historical Perspective Chapter 2 The Nervous System and Movement Chapter 3 The Skeletal-Articular System Chapter 4 The Muscular System: Structural and Functional Plasticity Chapter 5 The Muscular System: The Control of Muscle Mass Chapter 6 The Muscular System: Fatigue Process Chapter 7 The Autonomic Nervous System Chapter 8 The Respiratory System Chapter 9 The Cardiovasular System: Design and Control Chapter 10 The Cardiovascular System: Cardiac Function Chapter 11 Organization and Control of Circulation to Skeletal Muscle Chapter 12 The Gastrointestinal System Chapter 13 The Metabolic Systems: Control of ATP Synthesis in Skeletal Muscle Chapter 14 The Metabolic Systems: Carbohydrate Metabolism Chapter 15 The Metabolic Systems: Lipid Metabolism Chapter 16 Interaction of Lipid and Carbohydrate Metabolism Chapter 17 The Metabolic Systems: Protein and Amino Acid Metabolism in Muscle Chapter 18 Mitochondrial Biogenesis Induced by Endurance Training Chapter 19 The Endocrine System: Integrated Influences on Metabolism, Growth, and Reproduction Chapter 20 Exercise and the Immune System Chapter 21 The Body Fluid and Hemopoietic Systems Chapter 22 The Renal System Chapter 23 Physiological Systems and Their Responses to Conditions of Heat and Cold Chapter 24 Physiological Systems and Their Responses to Conditions of Hypoxia Chapter 25 Physiological Systems and Their Responses to Conditions of Hyperbaria Chapter 26 Physiological Systems and Their Responses to Condition of Microgravity and Bed Rest Chapter 27 Exercise Genomics and Proteomics

Book condition
An important factor of a second-hand book is the condition of the book. The buyer may not be surprised. Always mention damages or defects. We use a system with 3 stars:
The book is acceptable: you have used it to study and made notes and markings – but everything is still readable. The cover and pages are in good condition.
The book still looks good: there are a few notes in it and you marked it. There are hardly any signs of use on the cover and pages.
The book is (almost) new: you have not written or marked in it. There are no signs of use on the cover and pages.
