Abstract
|
:
|
This book represents a cross-sectional account of the advances that the ability to probe the very roots of biological function have produced in the field of cardiovascular medicine. It arose from a series of articles published over the last few years in the Journal of Hypertension, bringing together an illustrous panel of experts from a broad spectrum of theoretical and applied areas of science.
