This is a book of Dr. Thomas L. Petty's journey from the beginnings of Long Term Home Oxygen Therapy, now known as LTOT, to present day applications. However, it is more than just a book about the science and technology of oxygen; it is about the people who need oxygen and benefit from it. It is written for all Oxy-Philes and contains personal vignettes by Dr. Petty with his perspectives about oxygen, from its scientific origins to current use. It is also about patients on LTOT.

All the drawings that appear in this book are drawn by Miyazaki, dating way back to 1982. His views were the same as that of Vedanta Society.
