It contains all physiology practicals—haematology, amphibian and clinical—written by legendary author Dr. CC Chatterjee. In addition, all new recommended practicals have also been included, duly supplemented by viva-voce question–answers and OSPE/OSCE question–answers. Chapters are followed by spotters which are important from the examination angle. It will serve the requirements of the undergraduate courses in medicine, AYUSH, pharmacy, nursing, paramedical and allied health sciences. This practical manual of physiology has been exclusively tailored on Competency based Undergraduate Curriculum for the Indian Medical Graduate, 2018, prescribed by the Medical Council of India. The salient features of the book are: It contains all physiology practicals — haematology, amphibian and clinical — which were written by legendary physiologist Dr. CC Chatterjee. It includes all newly recommended practicals such as Harvard fitness test, anthropometric measurements,interpretation of growth chart, etc. All practicals are supplemented with viva voce question–answers and OSPE/OSCE question–answers too. The unique feature is the collection of spotters which have been covered separately. Topics like colorimetry and basic life support have been included. It also meets the requirements of bachelor’s courses in •AYUSH, •pharmacy, •nursing, •paramedical and •allied health sciences. It equally covers the recent recommendations of the medical councils of Malaysia, Singapore, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, UAE, and most countries in Africa.
