Dry info about an interesting subject

This book was written by one of the best in the cardiac pacing field. The only problem is his dry and wordy compilation of cardiac pacing.

Good, but a bit wordy at times

I purchased this book to assist me in cardiovascular schooling and found it to be a great book for gaining an understanding of the principles of pacemaker therapy. At times though, the text is a bit wordy and dry. However, I find it very useful for reading up on anything from the indications for both temporary and permament devices to post-implantation evaluation, complications, and interventions. Unfortunately, with the rapidly changing world of pacemaker therapy, this book may soon find itself obsolete. Hope for an updated edition.
