A Neat Little ECG Textbook! Recommended by A UK Medical Student
Overall, I think this is a neat little ECG textbook. I like the cover and I like the way the content is structured. The content is not overcomplicated, but at the same time not too simplified, which is a plus for me personally!The ECGs are very clear and large enough to see what's going on. I think the arrows on most of the ECG strips are incredibly helpful for pointing out what exactly I'm supposed to be looking out for, for each of the abnormalities! And helps reinforce the "textbook" characteristics for each abnormality in my mind. I also like how it goes beyond the ECG, in regards to discussing the pathology and treatments.I always appreciate questions and excercises in textbooks. The ones in it are sufficient for revision, but I wish that there were even more! Especially for chapter 5, with all the diagnoses to use and apply knowledge with. Some case-based questions would've been the icing on the cake! Something to improve for the third edition, perhaps? :)Other than that. No complaints!

I found the book really easy to follow, especially the ECG diagnosis section which is in alphabetical order. The description paired with each diagnosis was insightful, however I found the arrows particularly helpful as this allowed me to be confident in what I was looking at. I found the exercises after each chapter a useful self-assessment tool, as it highlights any outstanding learning gaps, or information which I may not fully understand yet. Perhaps a case study exercise would be beneficial to apply new knowledge to practice, but without the pressure. For non-practitioners, I think more images may be beneficial (e.g. when describing the tools used to perform an ECG).Overall I genuinely enjoyed reading this book and I learnt a lot, I will recommend this book to any medical student who is struggling with ECG interpretation.

Really great content, clear explanations, would love more colour!
My favourite thing about this book is the incredibly simple language, there isn’t a lot of medical jargon which makes this book easy to understand, in particular to medical students who are just starting their clinical years. I found a lot of books over complicate the ECG but this is really great especially when explaining the axis.I thought in particular, the descriptions of the complexes of the ECG were brilliant, it really gave me a fresh perspective on it and helped me to understand it better- mostly due to the simple language.The exercises are great and make sure that you have read and understood the chapter, they relate to knowing the key facts and test knowledge very well. Adding in more, would be even better, although I appreciate this isn’t a question book.I also enjoyed that each diagnosis is given its’ own section, the most important conditions are really throughly explained with sufficient detail which I think helps a lot. I personally learn the best from conditions so this benefitted me.I think my main improvement points concern the aesthetics of the book and images.I think some images could be of higher quality and be more in colour, as a visual learner this would really help!

Brilliant and Informative
I think this is a great book for beginners but also just to refresh the brain if you already know how to interpret ECG’s. It really goes into depth and I particularly love the visual aids which makes it that little bit easier. The book is very well put together and structured, starting with the basics and then moving on to more complex content as the book progresses. I would recommend this book to anyone who has an interest in learning how to read ECG’s and I plan on sharing this book on my instagram to hopefully help fellow students and health professionals. Amazing job on the book and a great read, I will definitely be using this for future reference! 🙂

Really helpful beginning to end :)
Overall, a really good book. Teaching is clearly done with the purpose of gaining understanding as opposed to memorisation, and I think that really helps when thinking of the causes and effects of a disease process instead of just 'mobitz 1 looks like this just because it does'. The diagrams are really helpful and thorough explanations on all were also beneficial. I really enjoyed it and feel like I understand much more than I did before!
