5.0 out of 5 stars Concise and Practical, December 31, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

5.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive, November 5, 2010
This review is from: Allergy and Asthma: Practical Diagnosis and Management (LANGE Clinical Medicine) (Paperback)
As a sufferer myself, I have ended up taking a very deep look at asthma management myself as, even though I'm not from a medical background - I like to find out all that I can about something that has affected my life to such a great degree.

This handbook/textbook is great if you are deeply involved with the treatment of asthma professionally, or if, like me, you want to discover everything you possibly can about this debilitating illness. However, because of the price, and also because of the more medical slant this book takes - I would certainly recommend my favorite asthma book - Asthma Management: 92 Tips For Dealing With The Symptoms And Treatment Of Asthma - which is short, to the point, and written in language that even child sufferers can understand.
