Patients with psychiatric problems, particularly depression, may be more susceptible to cardiovascular disorders. Depression and Heart Disease synthesizes current evidence, including some previously unpublished data, in a concise, easy-to-read format.

The book also reviews the best pharmacological and psychotherapeutic approaches for people with this comorbidity.
