Description
Part of this renowned series which has now reached 'star' status in the BMJ review, Part A deals with the general principles of cardiovascular pathology and in addition covers cardiac lesions. In this way, congenital cardiac disease is dealt with in this book, while Part B will cover acquired cardiac diseases. This is an unusual way of handling the topic as most books deal with acquired adult diseases and incorporate the basic principles of the cardiovascular system into the description of disease entities.
