Michael G. Levitzky Libri

This pathophysiological presentation on lung disease and dysfunction aims to provide the reader with an understanding of disorders of the lung structure and function as they pertain to the clinical setting. The book aims to keep up with today's emphasis on teaching through symptom-based and problem-generated models, encompassing the core of basic sciences and merging it with clinical subjects. It includes special coverage of paediatric and geriatric pulmonary pathology, newer concepts such as lung transplantation pathophysiology, molecular microbiology and immunology of disease states.

Learn and understand essential concepts rather than just memorize facts Concise, yet complete, Pulmonary Physiology 7e provides students with a solid background in the areas of pulmonary physiology essential for an understanding of clinical medicine. The figures, key concepts, tables, and appendices summarize the material in the book and provide an outstanding review for the USMLE Step 1.
