چکیده
The members of the Task Force on Sudden Death dedicate this paper to the memory of our former friend and colleague, Professor Ronald W. F. Campbell. Ronnie spent his life working in the field of sudden cardiac death; he contributed much and helped many. But his own life fell victim to this very problem, sadly illustrating its unexpected nature. With Ronnie’s memory in mind the Task Force has worked diligently to describe the extent of our expanding knowledge in this field, hoping that our small contribution might help to appease his sad and sudden death.
