Man at high altitude: The pathophysiology of acclimatization and adaptation - Hardcover
Drawing on their own experiences in Peru and with the Royal Observatory as well as published studies, the authors (pathology, Liverpool) describe the processes of adjustment to high altitude and the clinical, physiological, and pathological feature of disease that may ensue. Diagnosis, pathogenesis, and treatment are discussed for such conditions as acute mountain sickness, high-altitude pulmonary and cerebral edema, exposure, and subacute infantile mountain sickness. The text is readable enough for a nonspecialist. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
