520 _aThis book provides answers to questions that are frequently asked by those who have COPD, and their families. Each of the nine chapters starts with a brief vignette describing someone with COPD in author Donald A. Mahler's medical practice. Practical information is provided that addresses that person's particular challenge, and key points of the chapter are summarized. Next, there is a follow-up about the person that describes what actually happened. Each chapter has been revised many times after discussion and feedback from two individuals who have COPD as well as colleagues who work at.
