Cardiovascular Genetics and Genomics for the Cardiologist

Genes and genomes will become very important to the cardiologist in the very near future. This textbook will introduce the cardiologist and cardiovascular investigator to the concepts of cardiovascular genetics and genomics - a field that did not exist twenty years ago and that now promises to remodel the way that cardiovascular medicine is practiced. Written and edited by two of the pioneers in this area, this text will provide a clinically-integrated presentation which will be of interest to all cardiologists and internists who must know this material in order to provide up-to-date patient care.
