If your new to the world of EKG's this book will most likely frustrate you. It might be OK for someone who is experienced in this field and is just using it as review. However, I tried to tackle this subject for the first time through this text and it didn't help me at all. "Rapid Interpretation of EKG's," by Dale Dubin is a much better text for the beginner. My nursing instructor called Dubin's book, "The Bible of EKG text." Dubins book has all the same information and is well written, easy to understand, and provides color photos. This book might be OK for someone brushing up on EKG's. I don't hate this book, but I definately don't like it either.
