Description
This reference explores the functioning cardiovascular system from an integrative viewpoint. It includes both historical developments and recend findings on the diverse aspects of cardiovascular function, as well as providing a conceptual framework for understanding cardiovascular function in health, and an analysis of altered cardiovascular control during illness or under various physical and environmental conditions.
