REVIEW: We all face the challenge of providing multidisciplinary care for patients with this multi-component disease and I have no doubt that the latest edition of this book will greatly assist in this process. - Dr David Halpin, Chairman of the NICE COPD Guidelines Committee REVIEW: This is a much needed, very practical book, clearly laid out with a main points section at the start of each chapter and references at the end of the chapter. A useful addition to the practice bookshelf. - Practical Nursing REVIEW: COPD in Primary Care fills in the gaps in advising on day-to-day management following the launch of the British Thoracic Guidelines for COPD, and shows that COPD is an important condition that can effectively be dealt with in primary care.
