Preface
This Clinical Respiratory Physiology book is written by two teaching colleagues, both of us with a special interest in communicating physiology to our students. The first section of the book will review the framework and foundations of basic respiratory physiology. Since this book was not written to be a comprehensive physiology text, we have focused on leading the students to appreciate and understand integrative principles and homeostatic mechanisms in lung functions. Our purpose is to help synthesize and summarize pathways in respiratory mechanics, dynamics of air–blood and blood–cellular gas exchanges. We both strive to teach to make physiology fun to learn. This emotional aspect of knowledge acquisition is reflected in the way the topics are approached, e.g. by using playing
