Reviews

The intended audience of this book includes cardiologists and cardiology fellows in training. ... The quality of ECGs and content of the book is excellent. Given the complexity of the text and subject manner, this book is a valuable resource for cardiologists and fellows in training. (Matthew Alan Colna, Doody's Book Reviews, November 6, 2020)
