Since 1958, when the first cardiac pacing system was implanted, the

exemplary collaboration between medicine and engineering has developed into an extremely successful therapy. The book highlights many of the recent and most important technological advances and shows the

multidisciplinary nature of the technical task of pacemaker development

which is based on the diverse components of physiology, electronics,

physics, electrochemistry and the material sciences.
