Cardiac Arrhythmias is a long-established and widely respected guide to the interpretation and treatment of cardiac rhythm disorders. Acting as a practical handbook to dip into when required, and also as a comprehensive textbook, it covers the basics and detail of cardiac arrhythmias at a realistic level without overwhelming the reader with unnecessary technical details and references. For this seventh edition, the content has been brought up to date throughout, incorporating results from recent major clinical trials, developments in the treatment of atrial fibrillation, greater sophistication in pacemaker technology and the increased availability of defibrillators. The book will provide invaluable advice to junior hospital doctors, coronary care nurses, cardiac technicians, higher level medical students and practising physicians requiring a ready reference to this important subject. Highly Commended at the 2002 BMA Medical Book Competition Awards (Sixth edition): 'A thoroughly usable handbook to dip into and practical textbook covering the area of the basics and detail of cardiac arrhythmias for trainee cardiologists, technicians, GPSI cardiology and cardiologists but without unnecessary technical detail and references' From the reviews of previous editions: I enjoyed reading it and would recommend it unreservedly to anaesthetists who wish to improve their knowledge of cardiac arrhythmias. My advice is to buy the book and read it. British Journal of Anaesthesia a well conceived practical guide to the interpretation and treatment of the main cardiac rhythm disturbances. Many a medical registrar will be grateful for this clear, concise, up-to-date manual Lancet This book presents a concise and simplified approach to the diagnosis and management of abnormalities in cardiac rhythmOne of the books strengths is the number and quality of electrocardiographic tracings that are juxtaposed with the text to highlight important points New England Journal of Medicine This book about cardiac arrhythmias is of much educational value and is written and edited simply and clearly European Heart Journal My choice would be Bennetts Cardiac Arrhythmias which is rather more advanced and therefore suitable for junior hospital staff.

In recent years our understanding of molecular mechanisms of drug action and interindividual variability in drug response has grown enormously. Meanwhile, the practice of anesthesiology has expanded to the preoperative environment and numerous locations outside the OR. Anesthetic Pharmacology: Basic Principles and Clinical Practice, 2nd edition, is an outstanding therapeutic resource in anesthesia and critical care: Section 1 introduces the principles of drug action, Section 2 presents the molecular, cellular and integrated physiology of the target organ/functional system and Section 3 reviews the pharmacology and toxicology of anesthetic drugs. The new Section 4, Therapeutics of Clinical Practice, provides integrated and comparative pharmacology and the practical application of drugs in daily clinical practice. Edited by three highly acclaimed academic anesthetic pharmacologists, with contributions from an international team of experts, and illustrated in full colour, this is a sophisticated, user-friendly resource for all practitioners providing care in the perioperative period.

A number of techniques to study ion channels have been developed since the electrical basis of excitability was first discovered. Ion channel biophysicists have at their disposal a rich and ever-growing array of instruments and reagents to explore the biophysical and structural basis of sodium channel behavior. Armed with these tools, researchers have made increasingly dramatic discoveries about sodium channels, culminating most recently in crystal structures of voltage-gated sodium channels from bacteria. These structures, along with those from other channels, give unprecedented insight into the structural basis of sodium channel function. This volume of the Handbook of Experimental Pharmacology will explore sodium channels from the perspectives of their biophysical behavior, their structure, the drugs and toxins with which they are known to interact, acquired and inherited diseases that affect sodium channels and the techniques with which their biophysical and structural properties are studied.
