This text (with accompanying workbook on CD ROM) leads the reader through some of the more challenging aspects of cardiopulmonary structure and function that relate to respiratory care. Appropriate clinical and pathophysiological examples are used, but should not overwhelm the novice. Throughout the text, boxed "Perspectives" provide background information and the concept of homoeostasis is emphasized. Pedagogical features include chapter objectives and outlines, key terms with pronunciations listed at the beginning of each chapter, chapter introductions and summaries, and a glossary. A colour insert covers anatomical structures and pathologic conditions. The material covers the entire age spectrum, beginning with embryologic development, through to the progressive decline of the cardiopulmonary system. The computerized workbook on CD ROM provides an interactive review for students.
