From the reviews:"This book discusses the background of the theory and methodology that drive current pacing and defibrillation strategies. … The most likely readers are electrophysiologists, research scientists in the field of cardiac bioelectric therapy, or physician-scientists with an interest in this field. … This is an extremely thorough book on the mechanisms that drive the current clinical utility of pacemakers and defibrillators. It will be a useful reference for many electrophysiologists and researchers in the field." (Louis A Salvaggio, Doody’s Review Service, February, 2009)
