4.0 out of 5 stars Good but heavygoing in parts, January 18, 2000

This review is from: Cardiovascular Physiology (Paperback)

This book has a lot of useful information but could be a little more reader-friendly

One word of warning - the entire content of this book is to be found word-for-word in section IV of the Berne & Levy textbook "Physiology". Don't make the mistake I made and buy them both !

This review is from: Cardiovascular Physiology (Paperback)

Benefit of this book is only if you do not have the physiology book by the same author or if you want to carry around a section of the huge book. By itself the book is very clear in explaning cardiac cycles and rest of the hemodynamics. Hearth sounds forget it, ECG or ECG graphs, forget it but whatever is explained is explained in easy terms whit some nice diagrams/figures.It is expensive book per page compared to physiology book.
