This is the first pulmonary medicine monograph to combine physiology and pathophysiology. This book has its content formatted around nine case studies - two concerning normal subjects and seven presenting diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, diffuse interstitial lung pulmonary fibrosis, pulmonary embolism, pulmonary edema, coal workers' pneumoconiosis, and acute respiratory failure. This concise text is perfect for integrated courses and provides immediate clinical applications to basic science concepts.
