Disease conditions that affect the human heart and the methods used
to diagnose and treat them are all covered in one concise volume.
Written by a past president of the Boston Chapter of the American
Heart Association, Heart Disease is a comprehensive account of the
leading cause of death in the West. Sequential chapters describe
the structure and function of the heart, the various disease
states, and the treatments for each major disease. In addition, the
book examines the vast array of diagnostic tests and the most
advanced treatments available, from basic drugs for prevention such
as aspirin to transplants and artificial hearts. Dr. de Silva, who
teaches at Harvard Medical School, also covers historical aspects
of heart disease, discoveries about the structure and function of
the heart, and the ways in which heart disease can be diagnosed and
treated. Underlying conditions that affect the heart are described
and linked to the treatments and devices used to correct disease
conditions. Illustrations include diagrams of the heart, examples
of test results, and images of devices used to treat heart disease
