Excellent instructor and student resource. This textbook provide the essentials necessary to give a student an in-depth understanding of the cardiovascular system as it directly relate to respiratory care.I think it is a great book and will continue to adopt it well into the future. It represents the best authoritative text on cardiopulmonary physiology supported by a litany of beautiful images and well thought out instructor resources.Terry Des Jardins has done an amazing job with this textbook. The illustrations and case studies, in addition his easily understood language of respiratory care, will significantly aid in the education of respiratory care students. Thank you!
