Akin to nitric oxide, carbon monoxide (CO) was initially viewed as a pure toxic gas, yet it has been recently demonstrated to be an important endogenous molecule of gas that has profound physiological and pathophysiological effects on the cardiovascular system. In spite of the growing understanding achieved in this field, until now a comprehensive book summarizing the extraordinary advances in the... Read more

Biography
Rui Wang
"The book gives a first rate summary of the mechanisms by which CO exerts its action on vascular smooth muscle…The illustrations and pertinent data are well organized and clear. The book is a good source for graduate or upper division undergraduate courses in pharmacology, physiology, or biochemistry of CO. To my knowledge there are no other books in this subject. 3 stars."
