cancer, multiple sclerosis,
cardiovascular disease, HIV, and
many more, deliver the very latest
information on disease mechanisms,
diagnostic options, and the specific

State-of-the-art coverage of disease
mechanisms: Harrison's focuses on
pathophysiology with rigor, and with
the goal of linking disease
mechanisms to treatments. Improved
understanding of how diseases
develop and progress not only
promotes better decision-making and
higher value care, but also makes
for fascinating reading and improved
retention. Harrison's summarizes
important new basic science
developments, such as the role of
mitochondria in programmed and
necrotic cell death, the immune
system's role in cancer development
and treatment, the impact of
telomere shortening in the aging and
disease processes, and the role of
the microbiome in health and
disease. Understanding the role of
inflammation in cardiovascular
disease, the precise mechanisms of
immune deficiency in HIV/AIDS,
prions and misfolded proteins in
neurodegenerative diseases, and
obesity as a predisposition to
