This text is well constructed to be user friendly and simplistic in terms. The foundations in respiratory care are drugs and the effects of their use, primarily the use of bronchodilators. This text was well rounded for the beginner, but also went into the realms of cellular biology, general physiology, along with biochemistry. The understanding of basic chemistry is essential for productive readers. The overall structure and concepts of this book are defined and analyzed in appropriate order and in great detail. The overall concepts are conveyed and specific in description, this text is an excellent addition to the the multi-skilled RRT or the beginner CRTT. -MJW

Very detailed and to the point, sure beats hauling around the CPS!

My only complaint is that this is very obviously an American printed book, so if you're living in Canada or Europe, know now that some of the names are different and some of the drugs approved there but not yet approved in the USA will not be included (like Spiriva and Symbicort.)

My teacher for this class was really confusing, so when I went back home I read the book and...voila!!! Everything was understood right away. It's a great help for students...and teachers!!!
