Description
An impressive four-volume work that provides an authoritative and comprehensive coverage of the complete field of respiratory medicine.
It provides a vital interface between the pure and clinical science environments covering all aspects of respiratory medicine from the
relevant molecular biology to the treatment of diseases that affect the respiratory system. It includes comprehensive coverage of lung
cells, the structural components of the lung and key molecules that regulate lung function as well as all the major respiratory diseases.
Students, researchers and professionals alike will find this an authoritative source of information on all aspects of respiratory medicine.
Also available online via ScienceDirect (2006) – featuring extensive browsing, searching, and internal cross-referencing between articles
in the work, plus dynamic linking to journal articles and abstract databases, making navigation flexible and easy. For more information,
