John Enderle is among the best known biomedical engineers in the world. He is Editor-in-Chief of the IEEE EMB Magazine (Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, the key electrical systems-oriented BME society). An electrical engineer by training, he is a Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), a past-president of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, and a Fellow of the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE). He is also an ABET program evaluator for bioengineering programs and a member of the American Society for Engineering Education.
My only reservation relates to the level of mathematics and basic engineering sciences (e.g. solid and fluid mechanics, electrical circuit analysis etc.) which is expected from students in the tasks provided. Given that an introduction to BME course is offered in many undergraduate programs during the first year of studies, students may be frustrated by not having the necessary background. In my introduction to BME course at Tel Aviv University, Israel, which was based on the first edition, I had the impression that students do not take full advantage of what this book has to offer, simply because they did not yet study differential equations, numerical methods, statistics, solid and fluid mechanics, and electrical circuits. In BME programs where an introduction to BME course is offered in the second year of studies, this issue may be resolved, but often the motivation in teaching an introduction to BME course during the first year is to provide students with the "taste and flavor" of BME while they are dedicating most of their time to mathematics, physics, biology, and basic engineering science courses. The second edition does not solve this conflict.
Introduction to Biomedical Engineering, Fourth Edition is a comprehensive survey text for biomedical engineering courses. It is the most widely adopted text across the BME course spectrum, valued by instructors and students alike for its authority, clarity and encyclopedic coverage in a single volume. Biomedical engineers need to understand the wide range of topics that are covered in this text, including basic mathematical modeling, anatomy and physiology, electrical engineering, signal processing and instrumentation, biomechanics, biomaterials science, tissue engineering and medical and engineering ethics. The authors tackle these core topics at a level appropriate for senior undergraduate students and graduate students who are either majoring in BME or studying it as a combined course with a related engineering, biology or life science, or medical/pre-medical course.
In addition to his teaching and research, John also served in many capacities for several professional societies, was a member of the Connecticut Academy of Science and Engineering, a former Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) Program Evaluator for Bioengineering Programs and member of the Engineering Accreditation Commission. He was Editor of the NSF Book Series on NSF Engineering Senior Design Projects to Aid Persons with Disabilities. At the time of his death, John was working on a fourth edition of his seminal undergraduate textbook for biomedical engineering, Introduction to Biomedical Engineering.
The course covers basic concepts of biomedical engineering and their connection with the spectrum of human activity. It serves as an introduction to the fundamental science and engineering on which biomedical engineering is based. Case studies of drugs and medical products illustrate the product development-product testing cycle, patent protection, and FDA approval. It is designed for science and non-science majors.
Written for a first course in biomedical engineering, this book discusses the fundamental principles underlying biomedical engineering design, analysis, and modeling procedures. Topics include biomechanics, biomaterials, tissue engineering, bioinstrumentation, bioinformatics, biosignal processing, and medical imaging. The revised fourth edition contains updated chapters on current research in biomaterials, tissue engineering, and biosensors. Many additional examples and end-of-chapter exercises are included.
Provide an introduction to the multi-disciplinary applications of Engineering in medicine and healthcare and to clinical engineering as a profession. This module will give an overview of different areas of Biomedical Engineering and highlight how previously taught topics can be used.
