Dr. Joe Wise presents a balanced and reasonable overview of the more common medical conditions affecting the heart in clear and simple language that, during his thirty years of cardiology practice, his patients have told him they understood. The topics covered are those he was most often asked by his patients and include how the heart works, what can go wrong, how it can be diagnosed and what can be done about it.
He has balanced the scientific presentations with reason and common sense, emphasizing not only the potential dangers but also the optimism that we can now share about heart disease because of the remarkable promise of medical science and technology.
