The Second Edition of Pulmonary Physiology and Pathophysiology presents normal and abnormal pulmonary function in the same case—based format that has made the first edition a favor ite among students. Each chapter begins with a clinical case study of diseases typically seen by practitioners. The cases are followed by a discussion and breakdown of the physiology, pathophysiology, anatomy, pharmacology, and pathology for each disease, and a question—and—answer section. This edition has an infectious diseases chapter, updates on asthma pathogenesis and bronchodilators, and user—friendly features such as chapter openers, chapter outlines, "key points" summary boxes, and board—formatted questions and answers.
