Dr. Arnold Katz's internationally acclaimed classic, Physiology of the Heart, is now in its thoroughly revised Fifth Edition, incorporating the latest molecular biology research and extensively exploring the clinical applications of these findings. In the single authored, expert voice that is this book's unique strength, Dr. Katz provides a comprehensive overview of the physiological and biophysical basis of cardiac function, beginning with structure and proceeding to biochemistry, biophysics, and pathophysiology in arrhythmias, ischemia, and heart failure. Emphasis is on the interrelationships of basic processes among the cell, cardiac muscle function, and the biophysics of contractile and electrical behavior. This edition includes new material on cell signaling and molecular biology.

Physiology of the Heart PDF
This is a very comprehensive book that covers the basics of both the physiology and the molecular details. I found it extremely useful as someone not initially from the field and would recommend it to everyone looking to learn more about cardiology.By M
I didn't buy the latest version, and I'm glad I didn't because it's about the same when I compared them. Be prepared for this to be dense, and only black and white pics. If you are looking for animated, fun pictures this is not the book for you. For my purposes this book is very straightforward despite it being dense.By TashaM
