Ernsting’s Aviation and Space Medicine applies current understanding in medicine, physiology and the behavioural sciences to the medical challenges and stresses that are faced by both civil and military aircrew, and their passengers, on a daily basis. The sixth edition of this established textbook and clinical reference has been revised and updated by a multidisciplinary team of experienced contributors, many new to this edition. The structure of the book has been refined, bringing related chapters together where appropriate, while the clinical content has been carefully streamlined in line with the specific requirements of the aviation medicine practitioner and adviser, with new chapters added on Commercial Space Travel, Skin Disease and Women’s Health.
