"This is a good, short compilation of data on relatively rare forms of ventricular tachycardia, that is, those found in the structurally normal heart. This book provides a ready reference on these patients as well as an extensive reference list for further review in a specific area as needed." (Cardiology News)"...an excellent book which serves as a superb summary of an exploding field of knowledge. I would highly recommend this text for cardiology house officers, general cardiologists, and internists interested in arrhythmias." (PACE)
