Description
Atherosclerosis, the leading cause of death in Western societies, has remained at the forefront of efforts to increase longevity and reduce escalating health care costs. The vascular endothelium has been identified as the cornerstone of a new understanding of the disease's mechanisms and, perhaps, is the earliest target for the initiation of the disease process.
Dr. Houston has synthesized the rapidly evolving knowledge base in the field of vascular medicine. In this text, he has created a new source of vital information for healthcare providers. He has taken subjects that until recently were research-oriented and made them clinically relevant for the practicing physician and primary care provider.
