High Alt Medicine & Physiol E2

The first edition of High Altitude Medicine and Physiology, published in 1989, was acclaimed as the most comprehensive work on this subject. This new edition has been completely updated to met the worldwide interest in the physiology and medicine of altitude and cold and in mountain pursuits.
There is now a separate chapter on high altitude population as well as new chapters on the management to medical and surgical emergencies to extend the book's appeal to all doctors and scientists active in this field.
