This book comprehensively describes the physiological changes and consequences that occur in humans during spaceflight. It specifically presents the adaptations of the cardiovascular and the respiratory system. Specific changes occurring after 10, 20 or more days in space are depicted. Furthermore, the book explains various effective countermeasures that are required upon return of the astronauts to Earth.
The book is a must-have for all biomedical and clinical researchers in the field of cardiovascular biology and respiration, and a fascinating reading for all interested laymen, who wish to understand a bit more about spaceflight research and technology.
Prof. Gunga is Full Professor at the Department of Physiology at the Charité, Medical University Berlin and Associate Director of the Institute of Physiology, Charité. Within others, he is member of the Scientific Program Board of the German Aerospace Center (DLR), Member of the International Academy of Astronautics and of the European Space Sciences Committee (ESSC). His research focuses on space medicine, blood physiology, cardiovascular physiology, renal physiology and comparative physiology in extreme environments
