内容説明

This is a detailed, state-of-the-art account of the renin-angiotensin system. It covers all aspects of the subject by describing contemporary research whilst also emphasising historical perspectives. Volume One considers scientific aspects such as structure, function, evolution, biochemistry and genetics; Volume two details the pathophysiology of the system and describes how knowledge of the RAS is being applied practically to therapeutic techniques. Each chapter is fully illustrated as appropriate: tables, algorithms, graphs, conceptual artworks and black and white photographs are all used. Where colour photographs are included, they are presented in a plate section at the front of the volume. It features an international team of authors, distrinctive artwork clarifies complex concepts discussed in the comprehensive, authoritative text.
