    Summary: This volume of the series Cardiac and Vascular Biology presents the most relevant aspects of vascular mechanobiology along with many more facets of this fascinating, timely and clinically highly relevant field. Mechanotransduction, mechanosensing, fluid shear stress, hameodynamics and cell fate, are just a few topics to name. All important aspects of vascular mechanobiology in health and disease are reviewed by some of the top experts in the field. This volume, together with a second title on cardiacmechanobiology featured in this series, will be of high relevance to scientists and clinical researchers in the area of vascular biology, cardiology and biomedical engineering.

    J.C. Tissot is one of the minor figures of the history of Medicine. Still, because of his writings on therapeutic exercises he should be better known. A part from that, he is also a human figure. Surgeon in Napoleon's Army, he goes through many misadventures, and finally dies peacefully dreaming of the past glory.
