Environmental Biomedicine

"This book addresses the diagnosis, classification, and treatment of a range of pulmonary conditions. ... The audience certainly includes pulmonologists among other providers, as well as researchers and clinicians involved in environmental or occupational lung disease. ... This is a serious entry in the field of respiratory research. ... All in all, this is a small but important collection of papers." (J. Thomas Pierce, Doody's Book Reviews, June, 2015)
