The main function of the lungs is to perform the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide with air from the atmosphere. To this end, the lungs exchange respiratory gases across a very large epithelial surface area—about 70 square meters—that is highly permeable to gases.

Before we get in to the details of how we breathe in, let me make sure we’re all on the same page by going right back to basics, so bare with me or skip a head if you’re happy with pressure, volume and pressure differentials.
