N2  - Pulmonary Edema presents for the advanced student or specialist in the field the structural and functional basis for fluid accumulation in the lungs. Hemodynamic and permeability factors are compared and contrasted with conditions such as congestive failure, edema caused by noxious gases, high altitude, or drug overdose. Several eminent men in the field have contributed well-documented chapters governing the physical chemical regulation of intravascular, interstitial, and intra-alveolar fluid and its solutes. Black-and-white illustrations and tables liberally complement the text, which is often technical, requiring careful concentration that rewards the reader with an understanding of a complicated process basic to cardiopulmonary disease.The text provides an elegantly organized consideration of pulmonary edema. It will enable the clinician to greatly improve his comprehension of the factors that regulate water balance in the lung and the various influences that result in the final common reaction—pulmonary edema.
