by Prof. Antoni Bays de Luna

I am very pleased to present the 5th Edition of the book Clinical Electrocardiography, for which in its four previous editions (1987, 1993, 1998, 2012) I was the sole author and responsible for it.

Given my age, and foreseeing the book continuity in the future, three expert cardiologistsAdrin Baranchuk, Antoni BaysGens, and Miquel FiolSalaaccompany me in the present edition as coauthors. All three have worked for many years with me in the field of clinical electrocardiography, and together we have selected and included in the book what we considered more interesting from the work published in the last 10 years. It is therefore not a book that has four cardiologists acting as editors of the work performed by many coauthors, but a book of clinical electrocardiology in which four cardiologists become joint authors of the entire work.

I am satisfied and happy with the choice. Adrin Baranchuk has achieved success in Canada, far from his country, Argentina, and has turned his center, Queen's University, into a benchmark in arrhythmology, not only in all of America but also worldwide. Toni BaysGens, my son, is a worldwide expert in heart failure who has positioned his center, Hospital Germans Trias de Badalona, as one of the best in Europe in its specialty. And finally, Miquel Fiol, the oldest of my dear collaborators for more than 40 years, is a great expert in ECG and has made original and very valuable contributions from his Hospital in Mallorca, especially in the field of ischemic heart disease.
