A comprehensive but compact practical text with a larger scope and more detail than its title implies: epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnostic criteria and procedures, functional assessment, pharmacologic and other treatments, management of various categories of asthma and specific categories of patients, and management of an asthma service.
