The first chapter defines the tetralogy in a meaningful and understandable manner, a fact of considerable importance in current cardiovascular surgery. The anatomy of the various types of malformation which can occur is beautifully described and illustrated in appropriate angiocardiograms and specimens. Especial emphasis is placed upon the hemodynamics with tracings of the pressure curves and oximetry records. The clinical features and diagnosis, presented in detail, are most commendable.
