Review
Doody's Book Review Service, 12-JUN-08, Andre C. Olivier, MD, RRT, Ochsner Clinic Foundation --
"This update of a comprehensive manual for ECG interpretation now includes a chapter on artificial cardiac pacemakers....This book serves to provide a basic understanding of the rules governing ECG interpretation as well as to provide insight into the cardiac physiology responsible for normal and abnormal ECG tracings. The author purposely emphasizes a simplistic approach to everyday ECG interpretation rather than focusing on the complexities of rare findings. "For over 50 years, this has been a must have book for medical students, residents, and fellows in training. After a thorough introduction to the normal ECG, each chapter focuses on various etiologies of ECG derangements. Chapters are well equipped with easy to understand graphics and illustration, numerous ECG tracings to support the text, and a comprehensive glossary of terms. Each chapter succeeds in being a standalone lesson for quick review....This book is beneficial for those interested in attaining ECG interpretation skills."Doody's Book Review Service (Weighted Numerical Score: 93; 4 Stars)

Synopsis
The gold standard text on interpretation of ECG recordings is now in its revised Eleventh Edition. Coverage of arrhythmias—the largest portion of the book—has been thoroughly updated for this edition, and more than 400 new illustrations have been added.
The book is filled with ECG recordings, anatomical drawings, and dozens of tables, and has a reader-friendly design with strategic use of a second color. Glossaries at the end of each chapter reinforce new terms. For this edition, the author has created a more functional layout.
A bound-in CD-ROM includes animations correlated with ECGs.

Synopsis
For over four decades the Marriott name has been a synonym for quality education in electrocardiography. As Practical Electrocardiography's new author, Galen Wagner proved a worthy successor to Barney Marriott with an innovative Ninth Edition of this classic text. The new Tenth Edition features two-color ECGs so readers can see ECG strips as they appear in clinical practice. Extensive updates to chapters on ischemia and infarction provide a current view of these critical areas. The text is revised with more consistent terminology, and a complete approach to the topic that gives the reader a better understanding of electrocardiography in today's medicine.
