It provides the up-to-date and ongoing research on the topic, beginning with the basic mechanisms involved, and brings it slowly together to the realm of clinical application. It also provides insight to possible future therapies. In doing so, it allows readers to come away feeling that they have developed as strong an understanding of this topic as is currently possible. I would highly recommend this book to anyone with an interest in the treatment of this prevalent disease.\" (\u003cb\u003eSammy Khatib\u003c\/b\u003e, MD, \u003ci\u003eDoody's Review Service\u003c\/i\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDavid Schwartzman\u003c\/strong\u003e is the editor of \u003cem\u003eInnovative Management of Atrial Fibrillation\u003c\/em\u003e, published by Wiley. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMarco Zenati\u003c\/strong\u003e is the editor of \u003cem\u003eInnovative Management of Atrial Fibrillation\u003c\/em\u003e, published by Wiley.
