Zipes and Jalife’s Cardiac Electrophysiology: From Cell to Bedside , 8th Edition

Description

Fully updated from cover to cover, Zipes and Jalife’s Cardiac Electrophysiology: From Cell to Bedside, 8th Edition, provides the comprehensive, multidisciplinary coverage you need—from new knowledge in basic science to the latest clinical advances in the field. Drs. José Jalife and William Gregory Stevenson lead a team of global experts who provide cutting-edge content and step-by-step instructions for all aspects of cardiac electrophysiology. 

Reviews

"The quality of the content of this book is excellent. Given the complexity of the subject manner, this book is a valuable resource for cardiologists and cardiology fellows with a specific interest in electrophysiology, as well as for electrophysiologists and electrophysiology fellows to further their knowledge and understanding of the complex topic of electrophysiology. The book is organized in a way that allows readers to develop an advancing framework that enables them to build upon and better grasp more advanced topics. The eighth edition provides updated knowledge and treatment strategies based on up-to-date research that was not in the previous edition."
