Description
Dr. Braunwald's masterwork returns ... bringing you the definitive guidance you need to overcome any challenge in clinical cardiology
today, using the best approaches available! Hundreds of world authorities, many of them new to this edition, synthesize all of the recent
developments that are revolutionizing practice - from the newest findings in molecular biology and genetics to the latest imaging modalities,
interventional procedures, and medications. This multimedia e-dition includes not only the printed reference, but also access to the
complete contents online, fully searchable, with regular updates and much more. The expertise of the contributors, the scope of the coverage,
and the versatile, multimedia format all make this the ultimate reference for the practicing cardiologist.
