| Summary: | This is the definitive reference work in the field of arterial hemodynamics. The sixth edition provides the theoretical basis required for the understanding of arterial blood flow, both in normal and disease conditions including pulmonary hypertension, atherosclerosis, and heart failure. The authors examine the relationship between pulsatile pressure and flow using mathematical models of fluid flow principles; clinical considerations are paramount throughout the text.<br> The sixth edition retains the key features so popular in previous editions-- evidence-based scientific rigor, a focus on practical applications, and a cohesive writing style. This is essential reading for all angiologists, cardiologists, circulatory physiologists, and vascular surgeons. |
