FIVE STARS: “Entering its fifth decade, this book has been used in conjunction with Dr. West's lectures for medical and allied health students. It pays careful attention to keeping the material understandable, concise, yet detailed -- which is why previous editions have been held in such high esteem by thousands of readers who have used it as a primer, an additional study aid, and a board prep resource...The author is an unquestioned expert on respiratory physiology. Respiratory physiology is a very challenging subject and this book helps students quickly develop a fundamental understanding of the respiratory system...[It] is a must-have book not only for medical and respiratory care students, but also for university, college, and hospital libraries.” --Doody's Review Service, review of the previous edition
