Resilience as an attribute of the developmental system: comments on the papers of Professors Masten & Wachs.

abstract：:In recent years calcium channel blockers have emerged as a new class of antiarrhythmic agents for the control of certain supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias. Electrophysiologically, they are heterogeneous but their main action is mediated through a depressant effect on the slow calcium channel in cardiac musc...
