Weinberger To my parents, Fred and Shirley Cockrill Barbara A. Cockrill To my parents, Martha and Gerald Mandel Jess Mandel This page intentionally left blank Introduction to the Seventh Edition Principles of Pulmonary Medicine was frst published in 1986 as a “concise, core reference [that] emphasizes pathophysiology and diagnosis as the basis for optimal management of respiratory disorders. Physiologic, radiologic, and pathologic features of diseases are correlated with clinical fndings providing an integrated, comprehensive approach.” Much has changed over seven editions of the book and the more than 30 years that have elapsed since the frst edition. Our understanding of many disease processes has improved, particularly at a molecular level; our diagnostic tests have become more sophisticated; and our therapeutic armamentarium has been expanded and improved. The single author of the frst four editions, Steven E. Weinberger, MD, MACP, FRCP, has been joined by two additional authors, Barbara A. Cockrill, MD, and Jess Mandel, MD, FACP, since the ffth edition; their knowledge, experience, and perspectives have clearly enhanced the quality of the book. Since the ffth edition, we have expanded the number of supplementary images and self-assessment questions accessible on the internet, recognizing the importance of learners being able to assess their knowledge and their understanding of concepts that can at times be daunting to grasp. At the same time, however, much remains unchanged since the frst edition. Although the primary audience has always been the medical student taking a respiratory patho- physiology course, the book has also been extensively used by residents and practicing physicians as well as by other healthcare professionals who care for patients with pulmonary disease. A persistent goal throughout all editions of the book has been to present physiologic concepts, pathogenetic and pathophysiologic mechanisms, and radiologic and pathologic correlates of disease in a clear fashion that can be easily understood even by the beginning student of pulmonary medicine. We have also continued to include margin notes throughout the text, which summarize the major points and concepts and allow the reader to quickly review the material. Finally, starting with the second edition, we have included three appendixes that provide simplifed methods for interpreting pulmonary function tests and arterial blood gases, while also presenting sample problems that test the reader’s ability to use respiratory equations, assess pulmonary function abnormalities, and interpret arterial blood gases. We have been most gratifed by the popularity of the textbook, which has been used extensively not only in the United States and Canada but also in other countries throughout the world. Various editions have been translated into Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Japanese, Chinese, and Polish. Although there may be some differences in diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to pulmonary diseases in different countries, the conceptual underpinnings of physiology, pathophysiology, and disease mechanisms that we are trying to convey in a readable fashion are universal. viii n Principles of Pulmonary Medicine It has been a pleasure to work with the editorial staff at Elsevier in development of this edition, just as it has been for past editions. We particularly want to express our appreciation to Stephanie Turza, Marybeth Thiel, and Robin Carter, who have been most supportive throughout the development and production process. Finally, we are most grateful to our spouses and children for their support and understanding as we had to sacrifce time with them to prepare this new edition of the book. Steven E. Weinberger, MD, MACP, FRCP Barbara A. Cockrill, MD Jess Mandel, MD, FACP
