5.0 out of 5 stars the Bible of Cardiology, June 3, 2002
By 
There are many authors that have mastered their subjects. Once in a while however, you come across some authors that have, in addition, mastered the art of imparting that knowledge to others. That is what you have in this volume that has become the indispensable resource for Cardiologists and cardiology fellows. What Harrison's is to Internal Medicine, and Gray's is to Gross Anatomy, Braunwald's is to Cardiology. It is probably easier to talk of the beach without mentioning water than to talk of cardiology without Braunwald's Heart Disease.
This is a very worthy reference resource.

5.0 out of 5 stars A HARD-TO-FLAW MASTERPIECE, June 18, 2002
By 
reviewer (Zurich, Switzerland.) - See all my reviews
Anyone familiar with Dr. Braunwald's superb cardiovascular exploits in the "Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine" would not be surprised by the richness of this book.
The diligently crafted chapters are comprehensive, authoritative, well-illustrated, and include all the 'ins' and 'outs' of contemporary cardiology. It is one of the most consistent and coherent multi-authored texts in the field.
This single-volume CD-ROM package is a rich blend of evidence based medicine, best practice, and all the user-flexibility an e-book enthusiast would expect.

5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT BOOK, March 19, 2011
This is the classic cardiology textbook. It is comprehensive, with lots of graphs and illustrations. Yes it is big (over 2000 pages), but would likely be 500+ pages less without pictures. Some pictures are worth a thousand words.

Online at[...] is great. I had some trouble, but it was resolved quickly and I can access the book anywhere. The search feature is good.

I am currently using it for the boards. Yes, I have board review books from Mayo and Cleveland Clinic, but they tend to go over the big stuff, and the boards often are more detailed. The most recent guidelines from the AHA/ACC are at the end of each relative chapter. It is very readable compared to some other cardiology texts.
