I have used this book, as have all of my nursing colleagues, through its various editions for many many years and cannot recommend it more highly. Dr. Meltzer was a pioneer -- and a genius -- in coronary care and his contributions to the field are enormous. This book, called the "yellow bible" by many faithful followers, is beautifully written, easy to read and understand and very thorough. If you are a coronary care nurse, this book must be part of your library!!
Ive read the whole book and no complaints so far. The book was informative, simple to read and direct to the point. I highly recommend it!
Use regularly to teach arrhythmia and coronary care classes. Very through. Easy to follow.
The book was as advertised, but the book was older than I realized it would be.
