Space medicine, from physiology to practical technology
Organized in three sections, this volume moves from the physiology of space medicine to an overview of its technologies and their applications on Earth. That structure connects the conditions of medical care in space with the development and wider use of clinical tools, giving the subject both a spaceflight and terrestrial dimension. The book’s central thread is the relationship between biological questions and technological solutions, with attention to how advances associated with space medicine can translate beyond space exploration.
