Hi there,   If you want to learn about asthma, you'll find tons of great information here at this site. Use the menus on the home page of this site, as well as perusing the various posts by our experts here on the site.   Another great site is the American Academy of Allergy Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI), which offers a number of helpful downloadable brochures on asthma and allergy topics. If you like reading books, I've found that the Asthma for Dummies book is easy to read and understand. You should be able to find that in your local bookstore or online at Barnes & Noble or Amazon.   That'll get you started... Kathi
