Summary:	Reflecting on the evolving concepts of hypertension over the past hundred years, A Century of Arterial Hypertension reveals an essential yet little-known facet of modern medicine.

Originally published in French under the auspices of the French Society of Hypertension, this English edition has been acclaimed by the International Society of Hypertension. The originality, wealth of historical documents and bibliography will make this book of interest not only to cardiologists and physicians in general, but to anyone who aspires to understand how modern medicine has achieved what it has.
