Circulation, 21-SEP-04, Volume 110, Issue 12, William H. Barry, MD, University of Utah Health Sciences Center, Salt Lake City, UT -- "Many excellent basic cardiovascular science and clinical cardiology texts are available to help the academic or practicing cardiologist keep abreast of the rapid developments in these areas. Few, however, combine a lucid and up-to-date description of new and established findings in laboratory research with an informed discussion of their clinical relevance to the pathophysiology and treatment of cardiac disease. This new edition of Dr. Opie's highly regarded book does this extremely well..." "I believe this book should be required reading for 1st-year cardiology fellows and will be very useful as well to the established cardiologist wishing to maintain a current knowledge base in cardiovascular science that is relevant to their practice."-Circulation
Reseña del editor:
Thoroughly revised and updated, this Fourth Edition is the only current book that integrates cellular and subcellular elements of cardiovascular physiology in the analysis of physiologic and pathophysiologic responses. In straightforward terms, with more than 600 diagrams and illustrations, the book explains the key principles crucial to understanding how the cardiovascular system and its components function and malfunction. For this edition, Dr. Opie has enlisted eight internationally eminent co-authors and added a new chapter on cell signaling. The chapters on physiology of the ECG and arrhythmias contain many more ECGs. More than half of the illustrations - including 12 color plates - are new.
