Chronic obstructive airways disease (COAD: bronchitis, emphysema and chronic asthma) is a major medical, psychological, social and economic problem. Breathlessness is one of the most distressing and disabling symptoms of COAD, and it has long been apparent that the condition results in impaired quality of life. Drawing upon sociological and psychological sources and his own detailed research within this area, Simon Williams sensitively portrays the meaning, experience and impact of COAD from the perspective of sufferers and their families. He also provides a comprehensive review of the relevant psychosocial literature and concludes by discussing some of the policy implications for health care professionals. Chronic Respiratory Illness will be of immense value to health professionals and others who care for sufferers and their families. It will also be of interest to students and researchers working in medical sociology, health psychology, medicine and nursing.
