Language: English
ISBN-10: 0071702911
ISBN-13: 978-0071702911

Book Description

“This is an informative and practical, yet easy-to-read guide that provides a succinct overview of the field of cardiovascular medicine. 3 Stars.”–Doody’s Review Service

Featuring the chapters on Cardiology that appear in the landmark Harrison’s Principles of Internal Medicine, 17e, this compact clinical companion delivers all the latest knowledge in the field, backed by the scientific rigor and reliability that have defined Harrison’s.

SUMMARY :     

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the United States, and is rapidly becoming a major cause of death in the developing world. Advances in the therapy and prevention of cardiovascular diseases have clearly improved the lives of patients with these common, potentially devastating disorders; yet, the disease prevalence and the risk factor burden for disease (especially obesity in the United States and smoking worldwide) continue to increase globally. Cardiovascular medicine is, therefore, of crucial importance to the field of internal medicine.
Cardiovascular medicine is a large and growing subspecialty, and comprises a number of specific subfields, including coronary heart disease, congenital heart disease, valvular heart disease, cardiovascular imaging, electrophysiology, and interventional cardiology. Many of these areas involve novel technologies that facilitate diagnosis and therapy. The highly specialized nature of these disciplines within cardiology and the increasing specialization of cardiologists argue for the importance of a broad view of cardiovascular medicine by the internist in helping to guide the patient through illness and the decisions that arise in the course of its treatment.

Review

`The general layout of the book is attractive with a double-column format. Text on one side is matched with a column containing a large number of high-quality figures, radiographs and clinical photographs. This book is easy to read and attractively presented, notable for high-quality illustrations and an approach which reflects modern trends within the specialty … the book is far from being superficial. It contains a great deal of information and it is now the textbook that I recommend to undergraduates. Some have already bought the book and early reports have been most favourable. I see the book rapidly becoming a standard text for undergraduates in UK schools and I suspect that many postgraduates will also find it of great value.’ International Journal of Paediatric Dentistry 1998 8`’This is a well produced textbook…As an undergraduate textbook, it has more than achieved its aims. The book is traditional in style, well structured, and easy to read. The infomration is up-to-date, and a good balance of theory and clinical detail is presented…” W.Kim Seow, Australian Dental Journal 1998:43:6
