The Cardiovascular System: Design, Control and Function, Volume 36A, a two- volume set, not only provides comprehensive coverage of the current knowledge in this very active and growing field of research, but also highlights the diversity in cardiovascular morphology and function and the anatomical and physiological plasticity shown by fish taxa that are faced with various abiotic and biotic challenges. Updated topics in this important work include chapters on Heart Morphology and Anatomy, Cardiomyocyte Morphology and Physiology, Electrical Excitability of the Fish Heart, Cardiac Energy Metabolism, Heart Physiology and Function, Hormonal and Intrinsic Biochemical Control of Cardiac Function, and Vascular Anatomy and Morphology.
In addition, chapters integrate molecular and cellular data with the growing body of knowledge on heart and in vivo cardiovascular function, and as a result, provide insights into some of the most important questions that still need to be answered.

Autoren-Porträt
Dr. A. Kurt Gamperl is a comparative physiologist whose main research interest is to understand how environmental and physiological variables interact to affect fish biology. Central to this research are the role that blood oxygen transport, cardiac function, stress and humoral and/or biochemical factors play in mediating fish "performance" under varied environmental conditions.Todd Gillis was educated in Canada at the University of Guelph and Simon Fraser University. His PhD focused on the mechanisms that enable cardiac function in rainbow trout at their comparatively low physiological temperature. As a NSERC Post-Doctoral Fellow at the University of Washington, he studied the role of the thin filament in controlling cardiac contractility. He is now Professor of Integrative Biology, and Associate Dean Research for the College of Biological Sciences, at the University of Guelph. His research program, funded by NSERC and Fisheries and Oceans Canada, is focused on the vertebrate heart and the mechanisms that regulate its function. His studies utilize a comparative approach that integrates across levels of biological organization.
