I work as a nurse clinician specializing in pulmonary medicine. I also have asthma. I've read many books, articles, etc. on asthma and this book is by far the most informative (not to mention the most updated) asthma book I have read. I have found it very helpful both personally and professionally. I have recommended/bought this book for others with this disease. I know I'm too late to be a "winner", that's okay, my reason for writing was to "tell it like it is"

This book was very helpful to me in being an informed health care consumer for my child. I especially found the detailed medication section helpful. My son's asthma had progressed from being mild to moderate and the thorough review of current medication options was very helpful. I purchased the book based on the fact that a pulmonary nurse clinician had recommended it. I am a nurse practicioner in women's health and value the recommendation from another practicioner who is involved in educating her patients regarding their conditon. This book really helped me in making informed decisions along with my son's pediatrician.

As a lifelong asthmatic, I strongly recommend The Asthma Sourcebook. It is the most informative and readable asthma book on the market today. It helped me and should be required reading for all asthmatics and their families.
