Pulmonary Disorders in Women
This is a book reflecting women’s perspectives in lung disorders. It is an evolving concept that all systems of the body have sex-specific biological features. It is often observed that the etiology, clinical course ans response to treatment of many diseases vary between men and men. These differences are due to the differences in genes, and due to the differential exposure of hormones and environmental factors starting from the prenatal period. This is why, male and female tissues behave differently in many respects. However, sex-specific approach is not considered in majority of the situations other than for women – specific diseases. Women have different gender-specific roles in the society and hence the epidemiological and demographic characteristics of many diseases vary between men and men. Gender differences between men and women in compliance to treatment and health seeking behaviors may be major contributors of gender specific epidemiological trends.

Puzzling Cases in Nephrology
This Unique book provides a glimpse of how medical mysteries can be solved, or if not solved, atleast better understood. There is much in this book that will not easily be found in modern textbooks, as this to me organizes information around case examples rather than organizing facts around disease entities. In this book cases of renal diseases and kidney transplantation of particular diagnostic or therapeutic interest have been selected. This is an essential read for Nephrologists in practice and training and all those interested in care for a Renal patient
