Asthma : the facts (3rd ed)

Beginning with an account of life as an asthmatic by a sufferer who is also a doctor, this practical guide examines the causes and mechanisms of asthma, and describes how it manifests itself in children and adults.

Covering all aspects of treatment, including self-help and complementary therapies, the authors also offer advice to sufferers and their families on how to avoid triggering an attack and how to deal with one when it does occur.
