This book does not waste any words, and yet it still manages to explain cardiac pathophysiology in a completely understandable and accessible way. I struggled with cardio initially, but this book really helped put everything into context. I think the fact that it was written mostly by students helps to make it concise, relevant, and readable.

Most texts I read simply state the facts and do not explain ... Read More

The text does a nice job of reviewing the physiology of the heart, in the context of each disease process. It repeats important points of the physiology throughout each chapter, such that you've got a generally good understanding of the reading by the time you finish the book. Lilly also provides enough pathology and treatment content to give a full picture of each disease. It does not, however, ... Read More
