Praise for previous editions "I would recommend this book to all physicians looking after patients with venous thromboembolism .The single author style has the advantage of a consistent format and lack of repetition, and the book is very well written." (Cardiology News, December 2008) "Paul Stein has used his vast knowledge and perspective to organize [t]his definitive text .In this long–awaited second edition he builds on the knowledge base regarding this common and yet often misdiagnosed condition. This text fills a gap in the knowledge–base of the physician, nurse, or therapist who cares for patients with pulmonary embolism. By using a clear and organized format with many graphs and diagrams, Stein provides detailed information beyond the scope of an online review, but in a readily searchable and easily accessible format. Stein does a nice job of explaining the challenges of using intermediate end points in the assessment of efficacy. Stein is clearly one of the world s experts, and this far–reaching volume is a pleasure to read." (Respiratory Care, September 2008) "This textbook is cohesive, tightly organized, and has no repetition . It is beautifully illustrated [and] is my ?go to? source for rapid reference." (Journal of Interventional Cardiology) "An excellent contribution to the relevant contemporary literature . I enjoyed reading the book and recommend it to my colleagues." (World Journal of Surgery)
