Media Reviews
REVIEW: We all face the challenge of providing multidisciplinary care for patients with this multi-component disease and I have no doubt that the latest edition of this book will greatly assist in this process. - Dr David Halpin, Chairman of the NICE COPD Guidelines Committee REVIEW: This is a much needed, very practical book, clearly laid out with a main points section at the start of each chapter and references at the end of the chapter. A useful addition to the practice bookshelf. - Practical Nursing REVIEW: COPD in Primary Care fills in the gaps in advising on day-to-day management following the launch of the British Thoracic Guidelines for COPD, and shows that COPD is an important condition that can effectively be dealt with in primary care. If you want to know how ... this book is for you! - National Respiratory Training Centre.
