A Cardiologist Explains Things: Basic Information for the Layperson
No Customer Reviews
The author, an academic physician and the oldest pediatric cardiologist in the world, discovered Lifetime Learning Institute when he retired. He enjoyed the courses so much that he volunteered to teach one in his area of expertise. "A Cardiologist Explains Things" was an 8-session course that attracted a steadfast audience of enthusiastic seniors. It was so successful that he converted the material from a verbal presentation to this book. As a pediatric cardiologist used to explaining problems and procedures to child patients and their parents, his style is simple and easy to follow. The book is flavored by tales of the historical development of modern cardiac technology, experienced and contributed to significantly by the author. He has had two superb collaborators in this project: his daughter, Andrea, a personal fitness teacher who wrote the chapter on Lifestyle Changes and his friend and fellow pediatric cardiologist, Ruben Acherman M.D, who is also a talented medical illustrator.
