Science and Adventure Meet
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
A solid book combining the science of the lung with the adventure of climbing the highest mountain of the world. Dr. West writes with great clarity and flare, bringing to life the important experiments he conducted in one of nature's most fierce laboratories. This is one of the great scientific journeys of the 20th century and something every student should know about.
