High Altitude : An Exploration of Human Adaptation (Lung Biology in Health and Disease, 161)
Synopsis This work explores how humans respond to the hypoxia of high altitudes, addressing the response of lowlanders to sudden and sustained exposure, as well as those living permanently at high elevations. It examines adaptation and maladaptation, acute and chronic high-altitude illnesses, and the challenges faced by lowland dwellers with pre-existing medical conditions who venture to high altitude.
