Its functionality gives us blood and oxygen, without which, no other organs can survive. Life knows no other means if your heart gives way. When we realize the vital importance of this organ we should also recognize our duties to keep it healthy and functioning perfectly. Yes, sometimes nature cannot be combated with, but self induced harshness on this asset of the body is our loss indeed. Heart conditions, once deteriorated, require continuous precautions for the rest of the life with the fear of another attack dangling dangerously above your head. So we will tell you the better way, the precautions we can take up earlier in our lives to keep this tragic event at bay. This book is about you recognizing what your heart is and provides you with knowledge of the symptoms of when its health is deteriorating in various forms. We provide you with health tips and, most essentially, the first aid steps if you witness a heart disease. Once caught in a trap of heart disease, we add steps that you have to adopt, as now they will not be an option but will be an imposition upon you. So it is always better to keep things under your control rather than at the mercy of medicine or forced precautions. Contributor Bio:  Davidson, John John Davidson was born in Barrhead in Renfrewshire in 1857. He spent his childhood years in Greenock, and after working as a pupil-teacher and briefly attending Edinburgh University, taught in schools in Glasgow and Perth. In 1989 he moved to London where he made his living as a journalist and critic. Several dramas had been published while he was still in Scotland, but in the 1890s he turned to poetry, and published several collections which were very popular: In a Music-Hall (1891) and Ballads and Songs (1894) amongst them. These were poems which chronicled urban working class life, and his sense of outrage at the poverty of the ordinary man, as expressed by the much-anthologized 'Thirty Bob a Week'. At the beginning of the new century he moved away from the lyric and began writing in blank verse which incorporated much scientific language; this series of Testaments were not as successful as his earlier ballad style, though Hugh MacDiarmid was to pay tribute to Davidson's attempts to combine poetry with scientific ideas. Despite the early popularity of the poetry, financial difficulties constantly plagued Davidson; he had had no choice but to continue with the journalism he disliked in order to support his family and other dependents. Sadly the money worries, combined with ill-health and depression, drove him to committing suicide in 1909.
