“以器官系统为中心”的医学教学模式是国际医学教育的趋势。本系列书是世界著名医药卫生出版集团爱思唯尔公司出版的一套“以器官系统为中心”的医学基础课程教材，共分为骨骼肌肉系统、心血管系统、呼吸系统、消化系统、泌尿系统、神经系统、内分泌系统七个分册。该套教材第1版出版后受到世界各地许多医学院校的欢迎，并被多家进行“以器官系统为中心”教学的医学院校选定为教材。第2版根据第1版出版后教师和学生的反馈意见，结合医学知识的更新进行了全新修订。在编写内容上，该系列教材强调基础与临床的整合。每一章节都是围绕着一个临床病例展开，通过对病人问题的呈现以及解决过程引出对相关知识的探究，从而使与器官系统结构、功能以及疾病相关的重要的基础医学知识得到了完善的整合。在版式安排上，图框中的病例资料与正文中的医学知识完美匹配，一步一步地激起读者的求知欲望。

The Systems of the Body series has established itself as a valuable resource for allmedical and other health science students following system-based courses. In thissecond edition all the volumes have been updated to take into account feedback fromreaders of the first edition. Each volume continues to present the core knowledge ofbasic science and clinical conditions that medical students need， offering an integratedview of the system unavailable from standard textbooks. giving the reader an integrated understanding of the system and itsmajor diseases.Introduction、Structure of the respiratory system， related to function、Elastic properties of the respiratory system、Airflow in the respiratory system、Ventilation of the respiratory system： the importance of its lack of uniformity in disease、Gas exchange between air and blood： diffusion、The pulmonary circulation： bringing blood and gas together、Carriage of gases by the blood and acid/base balance、Chemical control of breathing、Nervous control of breathing、Lung function tests： measuring disability。
