这本专著记录了基于实验发现的新发现，致力于研究人类心脏的心房舒张功能。
心房舒张期的机械功能全面而清晰地阐明了循环的起源和历史，并将其与当前新发现的静脉系统中血液运动的发现联系起来。作为对发现心室机械功能的威廉·哈维爵士工作的补充，本书研究了心房室的机械功能，并完成了人类心脏的功能。
这本书为更好地理解和治疗影响人类心脏的疾病打开了研究领域的新大门，它将特别引起血管外科医生、血管学家、心血管疾病专家、心脏外科医生以及致力于血液循环的专家的兴趣。
从前言开始
“作者完成了一项雄心勃勃、艰巨的任务，编写了这本书并展示了他的发现。他的概念非常可信，并补充了现有的静脉循环、静脉瓣膜运动和心房放松的概念和理论。这本书提供了一个全面的文本，介绍了静脉循环生理学的新概念和基本理解，将有助于静脉疾病的诊断和治疗。”
凯拉什·普拉萨德教授
“这本书有很多有趣的趣闻轶事，可读性很强。例如，我们得知威廉·哈维爵士软化了他的发行理论，以安抚加伦的追随者；唉，没有用，因为他不得不隐藏两年，以防被加伦愤怒的追随者暗杀。这本书装饰着作者的原作，并用加伦的注释进行了漂亮的渲染耳朵书法精度。”

关于作者
Dinker Belle Rai是一名获得董事会认证的印裔美国血管外科医生，曾担任纽约布鲁克林跨信仰医学中心外科部前主席和血管外科部/血管实验室主任。他被认为开发了第一种静脉树逆行插管的方法，并发现了人类静脉瓣膜的运动。除此之外，他最初对大隐股静脉曲张患者的组织病理学标本进行的研究导致了静脉曲张管理的范式转变。他还进行了首次膝下静脉移植。右心房机械功能的发现是他医学研究工作中的一个关键发现。
Mechanical Function of the Atrial Diastole: The Motion of Blood in the Venous System—novel Findings
A recording of new discoveries based on experimental findings, this monograph is dedicated to examining the function of the atrial diastole of the human heart.
The comprehensive and well-illustrated Mechanical Function of the Atrial Diastole explores the origins and history of circulation and links them to current newly discovered findings of the motion of blood in the venous system. Complementing the work of Sir William Harvey who discovered the mechanical function of the ventricles, this book examines the mechanical functions of the atrial chambers and completes the function of the human heart.
Opening new doors in the world of research to a better understanding and treatment of ailments affecting the human heart, this book will particularly interest vascular surgeons, angiologists, cardiovascular disease specialists and cardiac surgeons as well as those specialists devoted to blood circulation.
From the Forewords
“The author has made a most ambitious and formidable undertaking of compiling this book and presenting his discovery. His concept is very credible and adds to the present available concept and theory of venous circulation, venous valve movement and atrial relaxation. This book provides a comprehensive text on new concepts and basic understanding of the physiology of venous circulation which will be useful in the diagnosis and treatment of venous diseases.”
Professor Kailash Prasad
“The book is eminently readable with interesting tidbits and anecdotes. For example, we learn that Sir William Harvey softened his theory of circulation to mollify adherents of Galen; Alas, to no avail, as he had to hide for two years for fear of assassination by Galen’s enraged followers. The book is decorated with the author’s original drawings rendered beautifully with his annotations in near Calligraphic precision.”

About the Author
Dinker Belle Rai is a Board Certified Indian American vascular surgeon who served as the Past Chairman of the Department of Surgery and as the Chief of the Department of Vascular Surgery / Vascular Laboratory at the Interfaith Medical Center, Brooklyn, New York. He is credited with developing the first ever method for retrograde catheterization of the venous tree as well as with the discovery of the motion of venous valves in human beings. In addition to that, his original research on histopathological specimens of patients with saphenofemoral resulted in a paradigm shift in management of varicose veins. He also performed the first ever vein transplantation below the knee. The discovery of right atrial mechanical function is a pivotal discovery in his medical research work.
