About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“The book provides a pragmatic approach for the diagnosis and management of the multiple pulmonary diseases, which often overlap with other specialties, and summarises the literature in a current and concrete context. … I enjoyed reading it and believe that the colour review will appeal to a wide readership, ranging from senior medical students, to trainees in internal medicine, and to pulmonologists in training and practice.” (J. Le Pavec, European Respiratory Review, Vol. 22 (127), March, 2013)
“A relatively concise yet comprehensive collection of respiratory cases, neatly stratified by diagnostic type and further stratified within chapters by disease processes. … The contents and layout will allow this book to reach, and engage with, its target audience. Occupational physicians, or other specialist physicians with an interest in occupation, will identify certain cases of direct relevance. Respiratory physicians will find this book a very useful addition to the bookshelf … . I enjoyed reading this and would buy and keep a copy!” (David Fishwick, Occupational Medicine, Vol. 62 (7), October, 2012)
