As I sit here, thinking about the field of heart failure, what springs to mind are the unsung heroes that pervade the arena – right from transplant coordinators to rehabilitation therapists, from heart failure cardiologists to transplant surgeons, critical care physicians to transplant pharmacists, etc. All this becomes more personal, in light of the recent mindless violent shooting death of Dr. Michael Davidson, who was a friend and cardiac surgeon at the Brigham & Women’s Hospital. Therefore, this book is dedicated to his memory and many more like him who have not been widely recognized.
