User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐A must have book for RT’s! It is filled with awesome information about all the disease processes and breaks each down nicely. The charts in each chapter give you a “down and dirty” overview of the diseases and can be great for quick reading! Definitely recommend!

⭐Did not come with the “free” web access card/number to be able to use the online version of the book; of which all the end of chapters quiz answers are located. The book its self is in good condition, but really is only have a book without the web access code. The book suggests there would be a access code inside, but it was either taken out, or forgotten to have been placed inside.

⭐Bought this for my granddaughter. It arrived ahead of schedule and was in excellent condition and the price was the best I could find at the time. As far as the contents of the book I assume it is accurate since it was required for my granddaughter’s respiratory therapy class.

⭐Concise, well-written treatise covering most aspects of respiratory diseases.

⭐Just as described, in good condition.
