Recensioner i media

"The book is well referenced and up-to-date. The editors are leading heart failure specialists who have participated in multiple major clinical studies in establishing different treatments in heart failure. Jessup also sits on the ACC/AHA panel on developing chronic heart failure management and heart transplantation guidelines...The book is best suited for primary care physicians, nurses, and students of a broad range of healthcare professions, who take part in caring for patients with heart failure. This book serves as an overview as well as a condensed first source that links us to more in-depth heart failure resources." - The Annals of Pharmacotherapy
