Résumé
The present book mainly refers to the macroscopic scale,
although nano- and microscale pathophysiological mechanisms are described.
It includes 9~chapters. Chapters~1 and~2 describe the context, factors, and
processes involved in pathogenesis of cardiac diseases.
Chapter~3 is devoted to adverse cardiac remodeling, that is, fibrosis and
hypertrophy,
Chap.~4 to cardiomyopathies,
