Media Reviews
This readable book gives an excellent overview of the subject, is well referenced and supported with good illustrations. I would highly recommend it as a basic reference and a practical guide for all trainees and physicians using an NIV service.

Anaesthetists will have much to learn from this comprehensive, state-of-the-art summary. Whether in the respiratory unit, intensive care unit or the anaesthetic office this book ought to be allocated a place on the shelf.

...this book fills an important information gap...it is an extremely well written and comprehensive book that no modern hospital should be without. I think it will be an extremely useful resource for doctors, nurses and physiotherapists.
