Mechanical Function of the Atrial Diastole The Motion of Blood in the Venous System—novel Findings

The comprehensive and well-illustrated Mechanical Function of the Atrial Diastole explores the origins and history of circulation and links them to current newly discovered findings of the motion of blood in the venous system. Complementing the work of Sir William Harvey who discovered the mechanical function of the ventricles, this book examines the mechanical functions of the atrial chambers and completes the function of the human heart.
Opening new doors in the world of research to a better understanding and treatment of ailments affecting the human heart, this book will particularly interest vascular surgeons, angiologists, cardiovascular disease specialists and cardiac surgeons as well as those specialists devoted to blood circulation.
From the Forewords
"The author has made a most ambitious and formidable undertaking of compiling this book and presenting his discovery. His concept is very credible and adds to the present available concept and theory of venous circulation, venous valve movement and atrial relaxation. This book provides a comprehensive text on new concepts and basic understanding of the physiology of venous circulation which will be useful in the diagnosis and treatment of venous diseases."
Professor Kailash Prasad
"The book is eminently readable with interesting tidbits and anecdotes. For example, we learn that Sir William Harvey softened his theory of circulation to mollify adherents of Galen; Alas, to no avail, as he had to hide for two years for fear of assassination by Galen's enraged followers. The book is decorated with the author's original drawings rendered beautifully with his annotations in near Calligraphic precision."

About the Author
Dinker Belle Rai　is a Board Certified Indian American vascular surgeon who served as the Past Chairman of the Department of Surgery and as the Chief of the Department of Vascular Surgery / Vascular Laboratory at the Interfaith Medical Center,　Brooklyn,　New York. He is credited with developing the first ever method for retrograde catheterization of the venous tree as well as with the discovery of the motion of venous valves in human beings. In addition to that, his original research on histopathological specimens of patients with saphenofemoral resulted in a paradigm shift in management of　varicose veins. He also performed the first ever vein transplantation below the knee. The discovery of right atrial mechanical function is a pivotal discovery in his medical research work.
