There have been many books published dealing with the topic of hypertension across a spectrum of diseases. However, it is rare to find one source that has an encyclopedic and timely spectrum of topics across the disease spectrum with a focus on hypertension. The book is divided into multiple parts including epidemiology, mechanisms of hypertension, the pathophysiology of disease, pharmacology of antihypertensive drugs, clinical outcome trials, and guideline discussions focusing on process rather than what was produced. Thus, there is something for everyone.
