Reviews

From the reviews: This is a comprehensive review of the sudden cardiac death syndrome. ... It is appropriate for students, allied health personnel, physicians in training, and clinicians in practice. ... The comprehensive genetics review, the screening of athletes, and the 'electrocardiograms not to miss' chapters are excellent. ... clinically relevant resource on sudden cardiac death syndrome, an area currently suffering from a paucity of scientific evidence. (Lior Shamai, Doody's Review Service, May, 2010)
