About the Book

Blood pressure is one of the most critical of vital signs, and knowledge of this area changes as research continues and new treatments are found. Now in its third edition, this basic work explains the latest data on the effects of medication, diet, and exercise on blood pressure. Using a clear, jargon-free style that has made it a standard text in patient education centers at hospitals throughout the country, "The Blood Pressure Book" defines the terminology (diastolic, systolic), emphasizes stress reduction techniques, and offers science-based insight into the causes and control of this widespread condition.
