Farrell -- Morphogenesis of vertebrate hearts / Jos{226)e M. Icardo -- Invertebrate cardiovascular development / Brian R, McMahon, George B. Bourne, and Ka hou Chu -- Piscine cardiovascular development / peter J. Rombough -- Amphibian cardiovascular development / Warren W. Burggren and Regina Fritshe -- reptilian cardiovascular development / Stephen J. Warburton -- Avian cardiovascular development / Hiroshi Tazawa and Ping-Chun Lucy Hou -- Mammalian cardiovascular development: physiology and functional reserve of the fetal heart / Kent L. Thornburg [and others] -- Environment and disease in cardiovascular development -- Oxygen, temperature, and pH influences on the development of nonmammalian embryos and larvae / Bernd Pelster -- Modeling gas exchange in embryos, larvae, and fetuses / Alan W. Pinder -- Principles of abnormal cardiac development / Adriana C. Gittenberger-de Groot and Robert E. Poelmann -- in utero and postnatal interventions for congenital cardiovascular malformations / V. Mohan Reddy and Frank L. Hanley -- Applying the science of cardiovascular development to congenital cardiovascular malformation / Edward B. Clark -- Future directions in developmental cardiovascular sciences / Bradley b. Keller and Warren W. Burggren.
Summary: This book is a unique overview of cardiovascular development from the cellular to the organ level across a broad range of species. The first section focuses on the molecular, cellular, and integrative mechanisms that determine cardiovascular development. The second section has eight chapters that summarise cardiovascular development in invertebrate and vertebrate systems. The third section discusses the effects of disease and environmental and morphogenetic influences on non-mammalian and mammalian cardiovascular development. It includes strategies for the management of congenital cardiovascular malformations in utero and postnatally. The book will interest graduate students and researchers who work in the fields of developmental biology, physiology, and molecular and paediatric cardiology.
