This work presents a comprehensive, up-to-date account of high altitude medicine and physiology. The authors have extensive experience dealing with the hazards of high altitude through participation in a number of expeditions to Mount Everest and Tibet. Early chapters discuss historic aspects of mountain climbing, ballooning and pressure-chamber work, as well as studies of the atmosphere and the geography of mountain regions. The text then deals with the effects of hypoxia on the body. This clinically-orientated section includes coverage of acute and chronic mountain sickness, high altitude pulmonary and cerebral oedema, effects of hypothermia and frostbite, fitness for altitude, accidents, emergencies, anaesthesia and practicalities of field studies.
