Experimental Models of Epilepsy. A Manual for the Laboratory Worker

The author describes some auscultory findings in ventricular tachycardia, which will aid the reader when he is confronted with diagnosing either supraventricular tachycardia or ventricular tachycardia. An excellent chapter discusses evaluation of the severity of hypertension based on auscultory findings. These also come from the author's studies. The author, in a chapter on functional and innocent murmurs reminds us that "functional murmurs may not be innocent and an innocent murmur may not be functional." "The Sounds of the Diseased Heart" is a textbook that will not only be an excellent source of reference, but also an excellent educational experience.
