The 1984 Coronary Primary Prevention Trial 330 $aToday, in the era of the statins (cholesterol lowering drugs), there is no longer any doubt about the value of lowering blood cholesterol levels. This book chronicles the controversy that swirled around the 'lipid hypothesis' of atherosclerosis for so many years. In fact, 'the lower the better' is the position of many clinicians. However, getting to this point has been a long uphill battle marked by heated debate and sometimes violent disagreement. The history of this controversy is told here for its own sake and because remembering it may help us avoid similar mistakes in the future. 606 $aAtherosclerosis 606 $aAnticholesteremic agents 606 $aStatins (Cardiovascular agents) 615 0$aAtherosclerosis. 615 0$aAnticholesteremic agents. 615 0$aStatins (Cardiovascular agents) 676 $a616.1/36 676 $a616.136061 700 $aSteinberg$b Daniel$f1922-$01536947 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784621303321 996 $aThe cholesterol wars$93786000 997 $aUNINA
