Average Rating: 
Rating:  - No answer explanations!
I am really distracted by this - I have the current (eighth) edition and it says on the back and on the description here that the end of chapter questions have full explanations for all answer choices, which I value. Yet the appendix at the back is just an answer key with no explanations at all, just letters. This is really distracting to me, I keep thinking they must be somewhere! But it's not that big of a book. They totally aren't there, they aren't anywhere - it makes me not trust anything ... Read More
Rating: - Too complex
I got this book free from a friend. This book was too complex for me in med school and is still too complex for me as an intern interested in Pulm Medicine. Stick with your school's curriculum to understand the concepts as best you can, like I did. I read reviews for another book entitled Respiratory Physiology: A Clinical Approach (Integrated Physiology) by a different author. I was so impressed by 10 5-star ratings for this book, I decided to purchase it now to regain better insight into pulm ... Read More
Rating:  - good book
This one's a great book for lung mechanics. So far it has been very useful for my respiratory course. I would rate 4.9/5
Rating: - Fully comprehensive
I just used this for the Respiratory section of Physiology in medical school and it covered all topics that you will see on Step 1. Its easy to read and understand and is a great comprehensive guide.
Rating: - Great Respiratory Physiology Book
I am a US medical student, and I picked this book up to go along with my pulmonary block. This book is short and sweet, but don't be fooled: by the time you're done absorbing these lessons on respiratory physiology, you'll be well-armed to study and comprehend respiratory pathology. I found "Respiratory Physiology: The Essentials" to be a clear, well-written book that will likely be useful for Step 1, and will definitely warrant a second reading during the clinical years.
