Reviews

This is a general overview of basic concepts and practical interventional cardiology in the treatment of women patients. ... The intended audience is practicing cardiologists and cardiology fellows. ... This is a high quality book. It is quite useful because of its readability and for its illustrations. It is preferable to similar books because it is clearly written and highlights key points well. (Daniel Garcia, Doody's Book Reviews, March, 2017)
