I was a fourth year medical student at the time I read this book. It is fantastic. The first chapter sets you up with everything you need to know and the remainder of the book keeps coming back to those few basic concepts that makes it easy to understand in a way that forces you to grasp the electrophysiological events taking place in an EKG rather than just memorizing patterns and shapes. It is a quick read and will help a ton on clinical rotations or just to freshen up your EKG skills

This book rocks so much. It understands that you're tired and hungry and your cardiology exam is tomorrow and you really don't want to read five unnecessary pages on the varying presentations of Wolff-Parkinson-White trying to figure out how to ID it.

Excellent, excellent, excellent book. This book makes learning how to read abnormalities on an EKG a snap. I used it in conjunction with a rigorous physiology textbook (Guyton and Hall's Medical Physiology) to learn the more technical details of cardiac pacemaking and production of electrical vectors, but once you know the nitty-gritty details of cardiac physiology, this book is so good at making sense of it all and getting you to be comfortable reading EKGs quickly and thoroughly. I'd highly recommend it.

I'm a medical student. My instructors recommended we order Dubin's EKG book. It is good, but this book is better. It contains more information, has clearer explanations, and is all around better. You will not get more information unless you get an electrophysiology textbook. I would strongly recommend this book.

Amazing book. Simple, logical, with an intuitive progression of chapters dealing with the essential basics of reading EKG. Great for everyone in the medical profession looking to get a handle on EKGs.

This book came highly recommended to me by cardiologist and PA's, its a easy read and everything is explained very well if you want to learn how to read ekg this book is the way to go.Also included in this book is a ebook edition which is very useful it also has practice questions in the ebookThe way you use the ebook, you open hard book and on the inside of front cover there is a scratch off code and you go to the website and you enter the code and you're good to gogreat buy

This was my intro into the ECG, and it's a lot to take in. It is well structured and very clear though. I'll be going back over it as I practice reading ECG's. I do feel much better prepared for Paramedic though.

I had always heard that EKGs were a simple science. Still I had never been able to fully understand them mainly because I could not find a source material that made it interesting for me. I got an A in Medical School cardiology by memorizing ELG like a parrot. :-).I was shock how this boom made it for me, after trying several others this one hooked me.It provides the right amount of information not too much ( which would make it boring) or too little ( wich would make it stupid.The author makes sure you understand why things are the way they are and that makes the learning almost osmotic.A totally recommended investment.
