D.G.JULIAN Cardiology has been advancing on a broad front and in recent years we have learned much about the basic mechanisms underlying heart disease, and developed many new methods of diagnosis and treatment.

This comprehensive but clinical approach has necessitated the inclusion of certain subjects such as the mechanisms of tachycardia, metabolic aspects of cardiac arrhythmias and reperfusion arrhythmias, which are not directly or exclusively clinical.

It is the editor's opinion that proper understanding of the clinical manifestations of the disease and, therefore, subsequent investigation and treatment are based on a detailed understanding of the pathology and pathophysiology, and as a result these subjects have also been covered in detail.

Twenty five years ago, cardiomyopathies or myocardopathies as they were sometimes called, were in very small print, and often the terms myocarditis and cardiomyopathy were used interchangeably.

In any textbook, basic scientific knowledge, and the art of clinical practice should be brought together in a rational manner and this volume on cardio vascular therapy attempts to achieve this aim. This volume then summarizes current opinion up to mid 1984 and gives, we believe, a reasoned account of present views.

Montgomery wanted to concentrate the bulk of the allied front on a narrow front, a rapier thrust to the heart of Germany. Montgomery's sense of his own destiny made the idea of a rapier thrust led by him particularly attractive: the idea of Patton's army advancing on a narrow front would almost certainly have seemed to him less appealing.
