It provides a clear and concise explanation of cardiac electrophysiology, with clinical correlations of arrhythmias and the drugs used to treat them. It also has sections on ischemic heart disease, congestive heart failure and a number of related subjects. I always had problems with electrophysiology especially, and was completely bewildered by arrhythmias until I found this book. The only down side is that it may or may not be detailed enough in the nitpicky things that certain professors like to test on, but used in conjunction with class notes, it's a gem. It is a very well-written introduction to and overview of heart function and dysfunction.
