During this period, several landmark volumes consisting of exhaustive reviews written by acknowledged experts have appeared, albeit infrequently. The purpose of this series is to present up-to-date reviews covering a broad range of topics in this rapidly advancing field. It is anticipated that all aspects of hemodynamics and hemorheology will eventually be covered, ranging from the rheology of blood and blood vessels and the mechanics of blood flow in arteries and veins to the highly complex phenomena of microcirculation. The contributions will try to reflect the advances being made in experimental techniques and instru- mentation for laboratory and clinical measurements, and in mathematical and numerical modeling. While this series should rightly focus on the scientific and engineering principles involved, special attention will also be given to the clinical significance of this important area of research.
