Practical Cardiovascular Medicine 2nd Edition

I fell in love with this book, it is the best medical book I ever read! The structure and the flow of the chapters are amazing. I am a cardiology fellow, and Dr Hanna’s Youtube videos led me to this book. I find it way superior to a classic textbook I tried before, although it is written by a single author (who clearly has an extraordinary understanding of all aspects of cardiology). This book is more practical, is detailed and very comprehensive but easy to follow. I feel I “grow” each time I read a section. For example, I never previously really understood EP studies until I read the EP chapter, an amazingly well outlined chapter! The arrhythmia chapters, MI, CAD, Afib, heart failure, congenital heart disease, and pericardial diseases are impressive. Clear concepts are presented, with data and clear practical approach. The book is loaded with diagnostic and treatment tips. I love the echo chapter and the standardized steps to TEE views, not to mention the cath and hemodynamics (which fit with the Youtube channel). And the ECG chapter is a huge bonus, better than dedicated ECG books... To complement all this, there are over 700 questions, including at the end of most chapters: they are tremendously helpful in consolidating the concepts and data. This is truly several books in one, well worth its price.The online updates are one more unexpected bonus. I highly recommend this book, not just for cardiology fellows, but for experienced cardiologists and any healthcare provider looking for a fresh, modern, and updated view of cardiology.

excellent book,very useful,and works well with Dr Hanna's videos on Youtube . Strongly recommended

The author manages to convey even the most difficult concepts of cardiovascular medicine concisely and to the point, while at the same time being thorough and detailed. It's so well written and full of high yield practical information that it's almost addictive to read. The second edition contains the latest studies and is up to date. I think anyone who works with this book will be able to acquire a lot of knowledge very quickly.

Up to date and concise.
