amazing book indeed...
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
Being not in the field of electrophysiology (I was only curious about the topic in general terms..)my review is only a general one.What I found astonishing in the book are the high quality images ( very efficacious to understand the MOA of arrhythmias)combined with a constant effort to clarify the electrophysiologic mechanisms from a pathoanatomical standpoint.The first part on ion channels is a bit tough but essential to understand the arrhythmias mechanisms treated later as well as the therapeutic epilogue section of the text..
Perfect!!

The book is absolutely amazing, and in my oppinion it is also mandatory to anyone working with cardiac electrophysiology to have it!!

From Ion channels in the molecular Genetics of the arrhythmia to the moment you push a patients face in a bucket of ice to convert them, good stuff. So little is still known about AvNode Rentrant tachycardia, Atrial flutter, classic WPW, etc. that it's highly refreshing to see a text like this. We know about Long QT syndrome and the specific genes responsible for this, mostly, and now the ones that have been identified for WPW, but there is so much more to understand. Did the open heart cryoblations hold fast, years later? What are the lasting effects of radiofrequency ablations? We are still experimental in our understanding, yet so advanced. Pacemakers, ICD's, and proper conversion methods for each arrhythmia, the dreaded Adenocard, etc. so much to do and learn, still.
Excellent Book for Medical Subspecialists

This is probably the best reference work in this area, of what's available in print, book format.
