ReviewsMedicalScienceBooks.com -- "The author's years of experience as a clinician and teacher show throughout the book. One can imagine the text developing from a long list of 'frequently asked questions' posed by his patients and students. The text also reflects a deep understanding of how to avoid confusion while explaining complex physiological processes. The book uses terms to which nearly any reader can relate. This makes it an excellent primer on heart disease for medical personnel as well as comprehensive reference guide for patients who want to be better informed about their disease and treatment."-MedicalScienceBooks.com
