Foreword
The concept of the Handbook of Hypertension developed in the late 1970s from a widespread feeling that the diversity of interests and inputs into hypertension research did not lend themselves to publication in a single textbook. The Handbook of Hypertension has now come of age and is recognized as an authoritative source of information and reviews on clinical and research aspects of high blood pressure.
As we have previously observed, the scope of hypertension in man has developed over the last 30 years from the short-term care of a small number of hospitalized patients with severely elevated blood pressure and extensive target-organ failure to a major long-term community-health problem involving a substantial proportion of the population. It appeared possible at one time that the mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of hypertension could be identified by a limited number of circumscript and straightforward experiments in laboratory animals. This is clearly not so. The field of experimental hypertension has, if anything, expanded even more than clinical practice.
We shared with our Publishers the view that the accumulation of biological and clinical knowledge in the field of hypertension had outgrown the limitations of the classical monograph. Moreover, the subject of hypertension by its very nature is a multidisciplinary one, attracting such diverse professionals as biochemists and public health workers, in addition to clinicians. When one tries to envisage what would happen to a single all-encompassing book, it is clear that it could never satisfy the different groups involved in high blood pressure. Some sections would become outdated rapidly while others would have a longer lifespan. An alternative, to escape from the constraints of a single textbook and to reconcile the interests of both generalists and specialists, was to choose the format of a serial handbook.
The present work has resulted from lengthy deliberations and discussions with many clinicians and scientists. We believe that it will be of interest to many different groups including clinical investigators, house officers, general practitioners, biomedical students, pharmacologists, pharmacists, biological scientists, physiologists and epidemiologists.
The present volume on 'Behavioral Factors in Hypertension' addresses increasingly recognized psychological and behavioral influences on blood pressure regulation and the pathogenesis of hypertension. It aims to present a balanced review of a complex and sometimes contradictory topic.
