These workbooks are dedicated first to my wife Vivian and son Joshua, whose
patience, tolerance, support, and love over the years have been limitless, exceptional,
and inspirational. They are also dedicated to the many cardiology fellows, house staff,
and medical students whom I have had the pleasure and honor of teaching over the
past three decades and who have also taught me so very much.
