West's respiratory physiology


簡介(Book Description from Amazon):

West’s Respiratory Physiology: The Essentials is the gold standard text for learning respiratory physiology quickly and easily. This highly readable, must-have text serves as an introduction to students and a review for licensing and other exams. The Tenth Edition features the addition of Dr. Andrew M. Luks as co-author along with new clinical vignettes, additional multiple-choice review questions, and updated information on key topics in respiratory physiology, such as blood flow and metabolism, gas transport by the blood, and the physiology of high altitude.

✯✯✯✯✯
This is an outstanding introductory overview to core concepts in respiratory physiology. The book is short and very easy to read, with simple explanations and clear diagrams. It should be more than sufficient for medical students, however, if you want a more in-depth understanding then you will need to build on this with other sources. West's lectures are freely available online and cover the same topics as this book but with a little more explanation and more examples. For critical care / anaesthesia trainees, I suggest supplementing with Nunn's Applied Respiratory Physiology, 8e for greater detail and more clinical concepts.

At present in am taking an advanced anatomy and physiology course for crna school. The book has been a total life saver. The material is easy to understand and has great illustrative examples of concepts. I love the questions at the end of each section. Dr West also has some great videos on YouTube that help cover specific concepts as well. Would recommend to anyone taking a pulmonary AP course.

Customer Reviews from Amazon :


✯✯✯✯✯
I think this book by Christine Ko is an outstanding introductory atlas that compares clinical dermatology images and dermatopathology microscopic images side by side for correlation. The book is rich on pictures and sparse on text, which is perfect for this format. I will start recommending this to pathology and dermatology residents who ask me for a good book to start with when trying to learn dermpath! I think this would also be an excellent resource for dermatopathology fellows who are studying for the dermpath board exam.
