- BookDamon Tweedy, M.D.Summary: When Tweedy began medical school, he envisioned a bright future where his segregated, working-class background would become irrelevant. Instead he found himself grappling with race, bias, and the unique health problems of black Americans, and met a professor who bluntly questioned whether he belonged in medical school. In examining the complex ways in which both black doctors and patients must navigate the difficult and often contradictory terrain of race and medicine, he illustrates the complex social, cultural, and economic factors at the root of most health problems in the black community.

This effect was obtained both in subjects with clinically normal hearts and in a limited number of patients with ischemic heart disease. These findings demonstrate the efficacy and safety of anti-arrhythmic treatment by drugs prolonging ventricular depolarization for ventricular arrhythmias occurring during exercise.
