`References are both comprehensive and unusually current. This is an excellent volume to find information about aortic pathology, particularly of the thoracic aorta. It also has a good discussion of modern diagnostic techniques ... will be of most value to cardiologists, interventionalists, and pathologists rather than surgeons.' Journal of Vascular Surgery (March 2000)
