CORONARY HEART DISEASE by Michael Oliver
M.D., F.R.C.P. (Edin.) of the Department of Cardiology The Royal Infirmary, Edinburgh
The most common cause of death in middle-aged men is a coronary heart attack. Dr. Oliver explains what the coronary arteries are, and what happens when they become diseased. He describes recent research directed towards finding out what leads to a coronary thrombosis-research that may also prove valuable in developing preventive measures.
