Conquering Asthma

During the past decade, major scientific advances have taken place in our understanding of asthma and associated diseases of the airways, such as rhinitis and sinusitis. These developments have been accompanied by new, effective and safe medicines and better drug delivery systems, allowing most people with asthma and similar problems to control their condition, so that they no longer need to suffer from breathlessness, cough or wheeze. In Conquering Asthma the authors, both of whom are eminent physicians specialising in the study and treatment of asthma, explain all aspects of asthma to asthmatics and their families. Conquering Asthma will help asthmatics to participate actively with their doctor in monitoring and undertaking self care of their condition. It will show most asthmatics - adults and children - how to lead a full and active life at home, at work and in their recreation. --- from book's back cover
