520 _aThis second edition of Clinical Cardiology in the Elderly holds essential information to guide physicians in providing optimal treatment and protection against persuasions. A superbly balanced arrangement of chapters begins with a logical discussion of anatomic, physiologic and metabolic features particularly to the elderly. Specific clinical problems as diverse as cardiac defibrillators, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, clinical trials, doctrines of informed consent and euthanasia are explored. Written by 40 multi-disciplinary experts and edited by Elliot Chesler, with a foreword by Julius M Gardin, new contributions on peripheral vascular diseases, abdominal aortic aneurysms, heart muscle disease and quality of life following cardiac surgery substantially update the first edition. Geriatricians, cardiologists, general internists and specialists who routinely deal with elderly patients and their cardiovascular care will significantly benefit from this well annotated work that is easy to read and practical in its approach.
