Pharmacology and Pathophysiology of the Control of Breathing (Lung Biology in Health and Disease) (repost)

Exploring the functional anatomy and physiology of the ventilatory control system from the intracellular to the integrative level, this references serves as the first source to offer comprehensive coverage of the influences of various pharmacological agents on the control of breathing. Edited by seasoned authorities in the field, this resource examines the most recent findings concerning anesthesia-related respiratory effects, discusses the field of respiratory physiology from bench to bedside, presents new and state-of-the-art findings on the cellular mechanisms of oxygen sensing, and contains new research on ion channels, receptors, and neurotransmitters involved in respiratory control.
