Oxford Handbook of Cardiology

Cardiovascular disease remains the major cause of morbidity and mortality throughout developed countries and is also rapidly increasing in developing countries. Cardiovascular medicine and the specialty of cardiology continue to expand, and the remit of the cardiologist is forever broader with the development of new sub-specialties. The Oxford Handbook of Cardiology provides a comprehensive but concise guide to all modern cardiological practice with anemphasis on practical clinical management in many different contexts. This second edition addresses all the key advances made in the field since the previous edition, including interventional cardiology,electrophysiology, and pharmacology. It expands the remit to medical students and the more junior doctor while retaining the level of detail required by more senior practitioners within the field.

“Review from previous edition: "Spanning the gamut from hypertension to intervention, this book uses text, tables, and illustrations in an easy-to-find, easy-to-read format to present up-to-date information ... a very useful supplement to standard textbook information." --Doody's Notes”
