Summary: Understanding EKGs: A Practical Approoach (2nd Edition)
Comment: Excellent Product--Very well written with ample practice and questioning techniques. Highly Recommended for gaining a strong basis in this field.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Good but very basic
Comment: I enjoyed this book, but it is VERY basic. Good explanations but won't take you very far. I'll keep the book for a basic review or illustration to show others.
If you are looking for a similarly basic book, you may also try Gail Walraven's Basic Arrhythmias (6th Edition) in addition to this book. Walraven's book gives many more sample ECG strips for practice. And, it is similarly priced.
After reading these books, you could try Huzar's Basic Dysrhythmias: Interpretation and Management - Text and Pocket Reference Package (Revised Reprint) which is more advanced and takes you into much more detail.

Summary: Practical?
Comment: If you are teaching or learning EKG's this is not the book for you! Although this book is initially inviting because of the color (it is much easier to measure strips on colored ECG paper) the measurements in the back are wrong in the appendix and are confusing to learners. This book also does not have "beginning" strips to learn, or typical strips for that matter. There are limited examples (50) to identify and that is NOT sufficient for learning ECG's. With the price of this book I would highly suggest another choice...any choice for that matter.
Customer Rating:
Summary: awesome book
Comment: This book is awesome. The chapters flow nicely from one to the next and the text is to the point and easy to understand. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in cardiac care.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Understandable
Comment: Easy explination of the heart's processes and how they relate to what is on paper. Comprehensable approach to translation of rhythms.
