On Oxygen

On Oxygen by Michael J. Joyner is a compelling, authoritative exploration of how oxygen shapes human physiology, performance, and clinical care. Written for clinicians, researchers, students, and curious professionals worldwide, this book translates complex respiratory and cardiovascular science into clear, actionable insights.

From the first pages you’ll encounter a fresh perspective on oxygen transport, cellular metabolism, and the interplay between breathing, blood flow, and endurance. Joyner’s lucid explanations illuminate key topics—hypoxia, altitude physiology, exercise performance, and oxygen therapy—while grounding each concept in evidence-based research and real-world implications for medicine and sports science.

Readers will appreciate practical value as much as scientific depth: clinicians gain a sharper understanding of oxygen’s role in patient care; researchers find a synthesis of contemporary studies and open questions; athletes and coaches discover principles to optimize performance and recovery. The book also addresses public health and aging, making it relevant for professionals across specialties and regions including North America, Europe, Asia, and beyond.

Clear diagrams and thoughtful case discussions guide you from foundational ideas to advanced applications, without sacrificing readability. Whether you’re preparing for rounds, designing a study, or refining training programs, On Oxygen offers a well-organized roadmap to the physiology that underpins life and performance.
