Synopsis

Like many fields of medicine, the study of arrhythmias has a distinctive past. The historical portion of this book is an attempt to trace the historical and chronological development of the study of arrhythmias as experienced by the author in his 30 years of clinical and scientific occupation with the subject. The historical portion of the book is preceded by a short, up-to-date systematic approach to the subject. Information on the diagnosis and treatment of rhythm disorders are included in this section. The book also contains a glossary of key terms used in arrhythmia management.

A propos du livre

Revue de presse

"Whether the reader reads the book all the way through or only selected portions (such as looking up a pathology suffered by self or loved one), this book is an easy to read, comprehensive look at the beating muscle within our chests." BookIdeas.com "This book will make an attractive and valuable addition to any cardiologist′s library. It is as delightful to read as it is informative and, as Douglas Zipes suggests in his foreword, it offers a treasure trove of references on the subject." Texas Heart Institute Journal "...This book is a successful accomplishment of historical writing in the specific field of electrophysiology. Its reading is highly recommended to cardiac electrophysiologists in general, and more specifically to scientists involved in the development of new diagnostic and therapeutic interventions, as well as to teachers at the preclinical and clinical level." Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology
