Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 19-APR-06, Volume 295, Issue 15, Paul Pisarik, MD, MPH, University of Oklahoma, Tulsa, OK -- Kaplan's talent for sifting the enormous amount of hypertension research and presenting the important clinical aspects in a concise, readable form undoubtedly helps explain the popularity and longevity of his textbook..Besides being impressed with how current and extensively referenced the book is-the average number of references per chapter is 250-I enjoyed reading it. It has all the advantages of a single-author book: it is cohesive, has little redundancy, and flows well. I especially enjoyed the occasional passages in which Kaplan shares observations based on his experience and his admonitions to physicians, such as, 'Perhaps we can walk up that flight of stairs, just as an example to our patients.'... Reading Kaplan's Clinical Hypertension is like listening to a wise internist. Would I recommend it to any physician who treats hypertension? In a heartbeat.-Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA)
