Abbott:
Atlas of Congenital Cardiac Disease
By Maude Abbott
2006 (revised ed), 118 pages, 24 pages of illus, $60 list
The American Heart Association published Maude Abbott’s Atlas of Congenital Cardiac Disease in 1936. The Atlas was an important contribution to the understanding of cardiac defects and helped provide the stimulus for rapid advances in the diagnostic, physiologic, and surgical aspects of congenital heart disease over the following decades. This reprinting of the Atlas underlines the importance of Abbott’s contribution for the present generation.
Burke: Tumors of the Heart and Great Vessels (Atlas of Tumor Pathology 3rd Series, Vol 16); 1996, 231 pages, $58. Over 50 distinct tumors and tumorlike lesions of the heart and great vessels. Entities are discussed by putative cell of origin, with emphasis on histogenesis, clinical presentation, radiographic features, gross and microscopic features, and differential diagnosis. Immunohistochemical and ultrastructural findings, where helpful in diagnosis, are discussed and illustrated.
Chopra: Illustrated Textbook of Cardiovascular Pathology; November 2004, 248 pages, $100. Emphasizing cardiovascular diseases in India and other developing countries, this text provides an overview of the normal heart and a straightforward approach to congenital heart disease evaluation using line diagrams. more
Edwards: Pathology Of Sudden Cardiac Death: An Illustrated Guide
By Brooks Edwards and Jesse Edwards
2005 (1st ed), 264 pages, 688 illus, $110 list
Pathology of Sudden Cardiac Death provides a comprehensive review of cardiovascular disorders. While sudden cardiac death could primarily be seen as an arrhythmogenic event, this actually represents the minority of cases. For the vast majority, there is an underlying anatomic disorder of the cardiovascular system responsible for the ultimate hemodynamic collapse known as sudden cardiac death. more
Khan: Encyclopedia of Heart Diseases; March 2005, 584 pages, $130. An accurate and reliable source of in-depth information on the diseases that kill more than 12 million individuals worldwide each year. In one volume, this Encyclopedia thoroughly covers these ailments and includes in-depth analysis of less common and rare heart conditions to round out the volume's scope.
Patrick: Handbook of the Vulnerable Plague; February 2004, 250 pages, $70. This book looks into what exactly is the vulnerable plague, how can it be detected, who are likely candidates for vulnerable plague. All the contributors are respected worldwide for their work with ruptured plague.
Shepro: Microvascular Research: Biology and Pathology; May 2005, 1008 pages, $280. The first book devoted exclusively to this vital systemic component of the cardiovascular system. Provides up to date mini-reviews of normal functions and clinical states. A two-volume set comprising a broad, interdisciplinary work that encompasses basic research and clinical applications equally.
Silver:
Cardiovascular Pathology; 2001 (3rd edition),
896 pages, 1144 illus., $310 The only comprehensive text on the pathology of

Virmani: Cardiovascular Pathology; 2001 (2nd edition), 528 pages, $115. This succinct text covers the pathology of cardiovascular diseases including ischemic heart disease and reviews the many recent advances that have led to new concepts in cardiovascular pathology and pathophysiology. The text emphasizes general approaches to heart examination and outlines expectations and limitations of pathologic assessment of cardiovascular disease.
Virmani:
The Vulnerable Atherosclerotic Plaque; Strategies for Diagnosis and Management
By Renu Virmani, Jagat Narula, Martin Leon and James T Willerson
2006 (1st ed), 384 pages, 458 illus, $175 list
