Features: The Family Pediatrics Diagnosis and Treatment Series is a popular science book series, with all the authors being pediatricians with extensive clinical experience. This book aims to introduce readers to the prevention, treatment, and care of childhood bronchial asthma in a vivid, lively, and accurate language. The explanations are designed to be precise, easy to understand, and focus on scientific rigor, practicality, and readability. For the complex pathogenesis of the disease, only a brief description is provided without elaboration, to avoid making it dry and unengaging. However, this does not hinder the understanding of asthma. The introduction to asthma inevitably involves numerous medical terms, and the authors have strived to explain them in simple language, so that readers with a secondary school education level can gain a basic understanding of asthma after reading this book. They will learn how to self-manage, how to seek medical attention, how to provide home care for children with asthma, and a basic understanding of the Chinese and Western medications for preventing and treating asthma. In other words, understanding 70% or more of the book's content is sufficient to achieve the author's goal. For those seeking a deeper understanding of any specific part of the book, it is recommended to refer to medical asthma (specialized books on asthma) and relevant pharmacology (drug) materials.
