'Few books become 'the reference' textbook in their first edition. David Cooper has brought together the wealth of experience of the leading authorities in Cardiothoracic transplantation medicine and in this second edition he consolidates this. This is a comprehensive and readable review of the 'state of the art' ... For the cardiovascular surgeons it is a textbook worth dipping into ... excellent reviews on operative technique and post-operative management .. Technophiles will find the last section on current and future advanced in thoracic organ replacement a delight ... the book is an excellent review ... ' Ulster Medical Journal, 67:1 (1998)
