Respiratory System, 2nd Edition provides a concise and highly visual
approach to the basic sciences and clinical pathology of this body
system. This volume in The Netter Collection of Medical Illustrations
(the CIBA "Green Books") has been expanded and revised by Dr. David
Kaminsky to cover important topics like pulmonary hypertension, COPD,
asthma, drug-resistant TB, modern endoscopic and surgical techniques,
and more. Classic Netter art, updated illustrations, and modern imaging
make this timeless work essential to your library.
