The book presents the latest developments in clinical medicine  particularly involved with
pulmonary care and diseases. Emphasis is placed on the role of childhood obesity  often a
result of the ill effects of an unhealthy diet and nutritional deficits  in shaping propensity
for inflammatory pathologies  allergies  immune deficiency and respiratory and cardiovascular
sequelae in adult life. Oxidative damage  caused by not full well understood cellular
biochemistry  when unchecked by antioxidative rescue mechanisms  takes toll on a respiratory
health. The book underscores the need to consider the complexity of mutual interactions of
pathophysiological processes  which calls for tailoring the management strategies depending on
the subgroups which patients belong to  be it obesity  children or elderly. The chapters also
tackle biological diseases with genetic underpinnings. The application of genetics to identify
the molecular alterations or mutations will serve well both diagnostics and targeted
optimization of treatment  the poignant exemplar being the histological subtypes of lung
cancer. The book provides a source of current facts and trends in clinical research and
practice.
