The second edition of this cardiology text book has been released. It has an international
panel of 250 authors, including some Australian scientists and Cardiologists. The
layout is in eight sections, starting with (1) Atherosclerosis and (2) Ischaemic Heart
Disease. The other sections are (3) Hypertensive Heart disease, (4) Cardiac Arrhythmias,
(5) Heart Failure and Cardiomyopathy, (6) Valvular Heart Disease, (7) Congenital Heart
Disease, and (8) Secondary Heart Disease. The book is well illustrated with all figures
available online. Text is also available online (but a different purchase). It is
difficult to rapidly assess such an extensive book, but I find it easy to access via
a detailed index, it has a clinical approach with frequent case examples, and all
sections follow a similar format.
