Awesome

Book is excellent for cardio Recommend highly As a Dr I am trying to rebuild my library after a house fire

Excellent mid-level cardiology text

I bought this book as a resident transitioning into a cardiology fellowship. The content is between a board review book and a more comprehensive text, i.e. Braunwald. It is an excellent resource for a focused, yet thorough, review of most cardiology topics. Strenghts are that it is very readable, has key points emphasized in outline format throughout text, is sufficiently detailed to learn a topic relatively well, has pertinent cardiology trials integrated into the text, and a nice very focused key point review at the end for last minute board prep. One con is that there are no references to journal articles for more detailed reading. I would recommend this book to any resident wanting a good cardiogy text or for fellows in training. Also a nice review for practicing cardiologists.

Not just for doctors!

Excellent resource book that is written clearly enough for people who are not necessarily medically trained. Reading the chapter on my own heart condition allowed me to have a great conversation with my cardiologist that went beyond the usual "this is what you have, take these pills, see me again in 6 months....". This book is great!

Good review book

Very good review for Cardiology Boards. Not necessarily an easy read but the review books which are as such tend to be too simple. This is probably a good happy medium between the quickie review books and a Braunwald's

Great Textbook for Membership Examinations

This book really blew me away. It is the best cardiology book I have read. All the major trials are summarized. The multiple choice questions are great. This book covers all the cardiology you will need to know for membership exams. It is a pity there is not an English cardiology textbook as good as this. Congratulations to the authors.
