"This concise and accessible systems-based text provides an integrated overview which considers both the basic sciences and clinical applications of the cardiovascular system. A general introduction to the cardiovascular system is followed by anatomy and histology, blood and body fluids, biochemistry and excitation-contraction coupling, form and function, integration and regulation, and pathology and therapeutics. The Cardiovascular System at a Glance is a perfect introduction and revision aid to understanding the heart and circulation and now also features: an extended section of self-assessment clinical cases to aid revision and illustrate clinical relevance; up-to-date information on pharmacology of the cardiovascular system; expanded material on history and examination and increased detlail on ECG of arrhythmias; and highly visual colour presentation." |

Examination candidates who need an authoritative yet concise guide to the cardiovascular system will find it extremely useful."--BOOK JACKET |
