Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Fully comprehensive
I just used this for the Respiratory section of Physiology in medical school and it covered all topics that you will see on Step 1. Its easy to read and understand and is a great comprehensive guide.
Rating: - Great Respiratory Physiology Book
This book is short and sweet, but don't be fooled: by the time you're done absorbing these lessons on respiratory physiology, you'll be well-armed to study and comprehend respiratory pathology.
As a medical student, I found, Respiratory Physiology: The Essentials, to be a clear, well-written book that will likely be useful for Step 1, and will definitely warrant a second reading during the clinical years to come.
Rating: - Respiratory Phys Provides The Basics
Respiratory Physiology provides the basics needed for a medical school respiratory physiology unit. By purchasing this book, a medical student is able to focus on the respiratory system in more detail than in some basic physiology texts.
Rating:  - Not useful for medical school.
This book might be a good review text for people who are already familiar with the material, but it can't be used as a stand-alone text. It just doesn't have the necessary explanations. I'd recommend sticking with the respiratory chapters in your favorite comprehensive medical physiology textbook.
Rating: - Awesome Guide for the lung
This book was well worth the money! It was concise and helped me understand topics that were very confusing in lecture (ventilation/perfusion relationship). Plus it is a fast easy read. In 4 days I was able to read the book, understand all the important concepts and ace the exam.
