More DescriptionTissue Engineering provides an overview of the major physiologic systems of current interest to biomedical engineers: the cardiovascular, endocrine, nervous, visual, auditory, gastrointestinal, and respiratory systems. It contains useful definitions, tables of basic physiologic data, and an introduction to the literature. The book reviews the status of tissue engineering of specific organs, including bone marrow, skeletal muscle, and cartilage. Readers will acquire a good understanding of the engineering and cell biological fundamentals of tissue engineering and will develop ideas for further development of this emerging and important field.
