Description - West's Respiratory Physiology by John B. West
Just as medical, nursing, and allied health students have done for more than 40 years, you can depend on Dr. West�s classic text for learning respiratory physiology quickly, easily, and with "no fluff." The 10th Edition of West�s Respiratory Physiology: The Essentials retains its outstanding qualities while also looking to the future of the field with the addition of Dr. Andrew Luks as co-author.

In addition to its well-deserved reputation as the preferred text for students, this must-have resource is also ideal for residents and fellows in pulmonary medicine, anesthesiology, and internal medicine as an excellent review for exams and certifications. Multimedia resources are available online to enhance learning. - New! Co-author Dr. Andrew Luks joins world-renowned author Dr. John B.
