This ambitious and comprehensive handbook represents an essential
contribution to our current understanding of interactions between
heart and brain, a research topic generating growing interest.
Despite the increasing awareness that neural mechanisms are the
primary cause of cardiac disease and its progression, therapy
continues to focus on end-organ protection and does not approach
the neural core of the problem. Growing public health problems such
as heart failure are still treated with autonomic drugs that are
30-40 years old and simply act on cardiac receptors. However, it
has now been shown that the progression of ischemic heart disease
to heart failure is mainly due to abnormal central responses to
incipient cardiac disease, with neural activation the primary cause
rather than the consequence of cardiac remodeling. Written by
leading international experts in their respective research areas,
the book presents a variety of perspectives on the core topic: from
social and philosophical to gender-related aspects. It is designed
for a broad readership and includes dedicated sections for
cardiologists, psychiatrists, neurologists and psychotherapists
looking for a more insightful and targeted approach to
neuro-cardiovascular disease.
