succinct and very readable

I enjoyed this book because it was very readable with many illustrations covering many topics that discuss how to prevent heart disease. I especially liked the section devoted to nontraditional risk factors.

Concise summary of ways to prevent heart disease

This book is very easy to read and contains a lot of information about heart disease and how to prevent it. There are a great deal of pictures and figures. I found this book to be one of the best on the subject. As a dietitian, I found it helped me understand some of the reasons heart disease is so common in the world.

excellent summary, well illustrated and up to date

This book is the among the best written on heart disease prevention. It covers a wide range of topics including cholesterol, high blood pressure, smoking and other less commonly accepted risk factors. It is very well illustrated and stocked with facts. Kudos to the authors !
