Clinical Cardiac Electrophysiology: Techniques and Interpretations 
asked by vladi on November 12, 2006 8:12 AM
The gold standard in electrophysiology, Dr. Josephson's book brings to light current relevant practices aimed at medical internists, clinical cardiologists, and electrophysiologists, emphasizing the capabilities and limitations of clinical cardiac electrophysiology techniques. Thoroughly revised, the Third Edition includes increased coverage of catheter ablation and the latest information on new catheters and computers that measure electrical activity in the heart. Full-color heart maps and illustrations of electrophysiologic concepts help clarify the text. A Brandon-Hill recommended title.
Reviews
Josephson is regarded as one of the semi-classic EP textbooks, but on the evidence of this edition, this may not be justified. The text is verbose, turgid and hard to read, and the numerous electrograms are poorly reproduced, making them hard to read and interpret. In retrospect, I'm not sure that this book was worth purchasing. The publishers need to clean up the text and improve the quality of the electrograms to make this a worthwhile purchase.
