Extensively revised and updated, it explores the basic aspects of physiology, lung development and developmental biochemistry as well as the management of those clinical disorders that affect children. Readers will find answers to almost any question pertaining to childhood lung disorders in the new edition. Reviews of the 5th edition: "The comprehensive reference in this field...For most practitioners, this is all the reference they will ever need, and more." - "Chest".
