Comprehensively covering chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), this atlas supplies up-to-date educational information in an easily digestible format. The book is written at a level suitable for general medical professionals and primary care physicians, as well as respiratory nurses and physiotherapists, but it will also be of value to pulmonary disease specialists/pulmonologists. It contains 70 detailed schematic diagrams describing disease progression, diagnosis and treatment protocols; clinical photographic material providing recognition of visual diagnostic cues; and figures, flow diagrams, and extensive up-to-date references that give the reader a concise review of COPD epidemiology, diagnosis, and management.
