Endogenous and Exogenous Regulation and Control of Physiological Systems

"This book stresses an analytic and quantitative approach in describing the basic components of physiological regulators and control systems (PRCs). The author presents the classical means of analyzing and designing nonlinear control systems with emphasis on the nonlinearity of physiological control systems. Special attention is focused on "wet" physiological regulators, such as those using endocrine hormones as parametric control substances."--BOOK JACKET.
