This timely Second Edition of a landmark reference furnishes in-depth examinations of the latest developments in the physiology, pathophysiology, and clinical relevance of the respiratory muscles and chest wall-reflecting the explosion of information that has occurred since the publication of the previous edition.
"The index…is thorough and generally easy to use……a superb reference for anyone with an interest in pulmonary mechanics and respiratory muscles…it will stand for many years as the single best source of information in the field."
