Synopsis

The authors of this book have achieved their general aim: they present an aid for physicians, technicians, and investigators who perform, evaluate, and interpret pulmonary function tests in children. Over 250 pertinent references covering a 40-year period are included. The work is extremely practical, with well-organized information covering the cooperative ages of childhood (5 to 15 years). Yet it does not neglect the newborn and infancy periods, for which authoritative works already exist. As with the approach in pediatrics in general, the performance and interpretation of pulmonary function testing is considered within the framework of normal growth and development.
