specialty of respiratory medicine has undergone greatchanges in recent decades.The tuberculosis era has beenreplaced by an epidemic of smoking-related disorders,but theburden of disease remains

work and the largestnumber of visits to a general practitioner.The advent of fibreopticbronchoscopy and other new diagnostic techniques,advances inour understanding of the pathogenesis of respiratory disorders,theappearance of new diseases,new treatments and fresh therapeu-tic challenges render respiratory medicine as relevant to themodern clinician as it was to our nineteenth century colleagues.  \nIn common with other texts in Butterworth's Case Presentationsseries this book is intended primarily as a revision aid forpostgraduates sitting higher examinations.It is also aimed at thewider audience of all practising physicians who see patients withlung disease and who seek to update their knowledge in aspainless a way as possible in this changing field.  \nThe case histories(names have
