Great for quick review
Our syllabus for the
respiratory course
was pretty poor. I found this book to be a great, quick review for respiratory
physiology with
pictures/diagrams that were really helpful for solidifying important concepts. I'm definitely going to hang on to it to study for boards...
Great Intro for First Year
I bought this book for 5 bucks online and read it cover to cover in 2 days before the exam on pulm phys. Its a great, short book that encapsulates everything you need to know. Our lecturers ripped diagrams and concepts straight from the text.

Simple and concise
I've read both Nunn and West's
respiratory
physiology
. Although Nunn's has got more detail, I think West's book is written better. Another good supplement for reading respiratory physiology is in Miller's anaesthesia.

Good Enough
I used this book to study pulmonary during my second year of medical school. It was a good book and it helped clarify a lot of the physical mechanics behind ventilation. However, I felt like it was very wordy. I like the "a picture is worth a 1000 words" approach to learning, so I felt that the paragraphs were too wordy and that the graph's captions did not explain enough. However, it was extremely helpful and a great study guide.
