This book is excellent. The format of the book makes it very very easy to use. 150 full ECGs is a good number to include in a book and will keep you going for a while. The information presented in the answers will also help you to revise cardiology and you will make connections and learn useful information that you somehow just can't achieve from ploughing through Davidson's or Kumar.

I personally read the ECG in practice before using this book but i think it could easily be used having just read the ECG Made Easy in the same series by Hampton.

Many of my colleagues avoid this book because they flick through it and think it is too much for their level - its just anxiety -shake it off!

Once you get into this book you will find it very very rewarding. The mixture of ecgs is perfect for keeping up motivation and at times challenging even the best. By the end of the book you will be so much more confident at interpreting the ecg and much faster at it. Also i've found it to be like riding a bike - once you've got over the initial hurdle its very easy to maintain your skill level.

Acquire it and make use of Prof Hampton's wisdom. You will far outclass your colleagues.
