PREVENTIVE CARDIOLOGY is a "must have" for cardiologists and primary care physicians.

Review of the first edition: "Excellent...Structured in a way that invites the reader to use it as a comprehensive reference...The combination of theory and guidelines with a practical approach to the patient at risk for cardiovascular diseases is a strength." The New England Journal of Medicine
