Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Rapd Interpretation of EKG's Comment: Outstanding book on interpreting EKG'. Extremely practical. It's the best book I've ever read on this subject. Customer Rating: Summary: Good Book Comment: The book is good. Information is presented at a level that many will be able to read and understand. Customer Rating: Summary: Good Book Comment: This is a light and easy read that covers the basic science behind EKGs and how to interpret them. I bought this book as a second resource for PA school, and I am glad I did. Our 'assigned' class text was terrible, and I thought I was doomed until I found this book. It helped me to grasp the basics since I didn't have much prior experience. This book would be great for someone that needs an easy and fun read on how to approach an EKG even if you've never done it before. This book doesn't cover every single higher concept, but it should teach you what you need to know and give you a foundation to understand the rest. Customer Rating: Summary: Good, but could be much shorter Comment: Dubin's book is not bad. The main text is not terribly high yield for studying for an exam in med school. The format is a little infuriating--too many pages containing trivial information that you're forced to flip through and skim. The useful information in this book, however, is really useful which makes this book somewhat worth reading. The summary/pocket guide that is included in the back is extremely high yield and that alone can be used in conjunction with the course materials/syllabi to get a good picture of typical EKG patterns and their pathophysiology. Customer Rating: Summary: A BIG HELP Comment: This interactive text was a big help to me. It breaks down the process of reading EKGs into simplified steps using graphics and easy to follow text. I would recommend this text to anyone just learning how to read EKGs or to anyone who finds it difficult. More Reviews
Editorial Reviews: The reader's rapid assimilation of medical concepts is the key to the continuing success of this best-selling book. A caption explains the concept illustrated on each page, and a few simple sentences reinforce the concept with interactive (programmed) learning, which links to the following page. Dr. Dubin's light and entertaining style, known world-wide, makes learning enjoyable. Practice twelve-lead tracings at the end establish self-confidence, and summarised reference sheets with examples (designed to be copied) provide an excellent review. This work is most recently updated in February 2006.
