"Returning readers will find the addition of color as a major, exciting new change in the textbook, and will be pleased to find that the basic structure has been retained. Furthermore, to address the tremendous growth that has occurred in cardiac catheterization and interventional cardiology, the total number of chapters has increased from 34 to 46, and every chapter from the prior edition has been updated where needed and expanded with further emphasis on hemodynamic data, hemodynamic tracings, interventional procedures, and the addition of new tables and images. Throughout the textbook, particular effort has been made in referring the reader to available guidelines, providing summary tables, illustrations and images, while maintaining the overall structure and historical character of the textbook and a focus on how the field of cardiac catheterization has evolved since the first invasive human cardiac catheterization was performed by Werner Forssmann on himself in 1929"--
