内容説明

This history of cardiology in America moves from its invention in the early 20th century, to its more recent transformation into one of medicine's most significant fields. It considers both the discoveries and innovations in cardiology, and the socio-economic forces that led to the professionalization of the field. It shows how, after 1945, factors such as the prevalence of heart disease, liberal government research funding, technological innovations, and the growing availability of health insurance shaped cardiology into a major academic and clinical discipline. The author also discusses the implications of the US government's desire to reduce public spending on health care, while still encouraging the growth of managed care.
