PREFACE This second edition reflects the very rapid advances that have been made in our understanding and management of cardiovascular disease since the first edition was published in 2001. All of the chapters have been extensively reviewed and rewritten. There are now two chapters on acute coronary syndromes, reflecting the modern classification: one on unstable angina pectoris and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, and the other on ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. Otherwise the format of the first edition has been retained, to include sections on epidemiology, cardiovascular function, examination and investigation of the patient, disorders of rhythm and conduction, heart failure, congenital heart disease, coronary artery disease, valvular heart disease, hypertension, and other conditions affecting the heart. I am also very happy to welcome Drs. Arnold M. Katz, Martin M. Goldman, David Benditt, Edward K. Kasper, and Roger J. Hajjar as new senior authors. I wish also to thank Pedro Perez for his superb contributions to the artwork, my assistants, Maria Anthony and Anitra Collins, and Paul Dolgert, John Morgan, Patricia Cleary, and Donna Niethe, and the editorial, production, and composition departments of Humana Press for their encouragement and hard work.

PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION “A big book,” said Callimachus, the Alexandrian poet, “is a big evil!” Not always. There are some excellent, very big encyclopedias of cardiology, wonderful as works of reference. There are also many small books of cardiology, “handbooks” or “manuals,” which serve a different purpose, to summarize, list, or simplify. This book is designed to fill a large gap between these extremes, to provide a textbook that is both substantial and readable, compact and reasonably comprehensive, and to provide an intelligent blend of molecular, cellular, and physiologic concepts with current clinical practice. A word about the title. “Essential” is used here not in the sense of indispensable or absolutely required in all circumstances, for there is much more here than the generalist needs in order to practice good medicine, especially if there is easy access to a cardiology consultant. Rather, the word as used here denotes the essence or distillation or fundamentals of the mechanisms and practice of cardiology. The “Principles and Practice” subtitle affirms the idea that theory without a practical context may be academically satisfying but lacks usefulness, and practice without theory is plumbing. Good doctors understand the basic science foundation of what they do with patients, and great doctors are those who, as researchers or as teachers, see new connections between the basic sciences and clinical medicine. I have been very fortunate to be able to assemble a team of great doctors who are outstanding physicians and scientists, most of them internationally recognized for their leadership position in their areas of specialization. They represent a careful blend of brilliance and experience, and, most of all, they all write with the authority of undoubted experts in their fields. They have all been asked to write up-to-date reviews of their respective areas of expertise, at a level that will be intelligible to noncardiologists as well as cardiologists, to medical students, internal medicine residents, general internists, and cardiology fellows. I believe that they have succeeded brilliantly, and I know that they are all very proud to have participated as authors in this project, the first textbook of cardiology of the new millennium. I am deeply grateful to all of them for the care and enthusiasm with which they carried out this task. The organization of the book reflects pretty much the key issues that concern cardiologists and other internists at present; I have no doubt that the field will develop and change in time so that many of the modes of diagnosis and therapy described here will become much more prominent (such as gene therapy), while others may diminish or even disappear. This is what second or later editions of textbooks are for. Clive Rosendorff, MD, PhD, FRCP

Apical four-chamber images with color-flow Doppler during diastole and systole. Red flow indicates movement toward the transducer (diastolic filling); blue flow indicates movement away from the transducer (systolic ejection). RA, right atrium; RV, right ventricle; LV, left ventricle. (Chapter 9, Fig. 5; see full caption discussion on pp. 143–144. From ref. 1, with permission.) Parasternal long-axis image showing a multicolored jet (indicating turbulent flow) of aortic regurgitation in the left ventricular outflow tract. The jet is narrow in width, suggesting mild regurgitation. AO, aorta; LA, left atrium; LV, left ventricle. (Chapter 9, Fig. 11A; see complete figure and caption on p. 151 and discussion on pp. 150–151. From ref. 1, with permission.) Parasternal long-axis view in a case of severe mitral regurgitation. The color Doppler jet is directed posteriorly and is eccentric (black arrows). The jet “hugs” the wall of the left atrium (LA) and wraps around all the way to the aortic root (white arrows). LV, left ventricle. (Chapter 9, Fig. 13; see full caption on p. 154 and discussion on p. 152. From ref. 1, with permission.) Apical four-chamber view of an ostium secundum atrial septal defect. On the left, a defect in the mid-atrial septum is present (arrows). On the right, there is color flow through the shunt. RA, right atrium; RV, right ventricle; LA, left atrium; LV, left ventricle. (Chapter 9, Fig. 22A; see complete figure and caption on p. 164 and discussion on pp. 162–163. From ref. 1, with permission.) Exercise (Ex) and rest (R) 99mTc- sestamibi and exercise 18FDG (Isch) images of a 67-yr-old man with angina and no prior myocardial infarction. There is a large area of partially reversible perfusion abnormality involving the septum, anterior wall, and apex (small arrows). Intense 18FDG uptake is present in these areas (solid arrowheads). Coronary angiography showed 90% stenosis of the left anterior descending coronary artery and a 60% stenosis of the left circumflex artery. (Chapter 13, Fig. 10; see full caption on p. 239 and discussion on 238. Reproduced with permission from ref. 71.) Right atrial electroanatomical mapping of automatic atrial tachycardia. Timing of atrial electrograms is color-coded. Red areas represent sites of early activation. Application of radiofrequency current (blue dots) at the earliest site lead to termination of tachycardia. (Chapter 17, Fig. 2; see full caption on p. 311 and discussion on p. 310.) Color-flow Doppler echocardiography demonstrates the high-velocity jet entering the left ventricle (arrow). (Chapter 30, Fig. 4; see full caption on p. 551 and discussion on p. 550.)
