Compiled by a team of students and practising doctors and consultants from the University of Edinburgh Medical School, Cardiology in a Heartbeat provides practical advice to enable the reader to get to grips with the subject quickly and easily.

This unique author team brings the reader the best of both worlds: the student authors focus on what students need to know whilst the contributions from senior medics ensure the book is accurate and covers the subject completely.

The attractive full-colour layout and short, consistent chapters mean the book is easy to navigate through; this is especially useful when the reader wants to quickly brush up on a particular topic or find an answer to a specific question.

Very Good Scion publishing has already satisfied me a lot with their Medical Rheumatology book.
Due to the positive experience I decided to give their Cardiology book a try. As a matter of fact I did not get disappointed!
Very good introduction to all interesting topics in cardiology including their treatment and clinical approach.
A book full of useful mnemonics and clear definitions of specific cardiologic terminology. Amazon reviewer

Excellent Cardiology Guide A fantastic and up to date cardiology guide for undergraduate medical students and foundation doctors. Explains everything in simple ways but also provides detailed information using guidelines etc. Particularly useful for Scotland or students studying at Edinburgh Medical School. Amazon reviewer

Great simple, easy-to-read and user-friendly layout Great simple, easy-to-read and user-friendly layout. Love the pro-tip and why sections. Overall a great book for your cardiology rotation! Amazon reviewer

The examiner's tips are really useful too! Really clear, interesting and informative. This book outlines the key details that every medical student should know, but also explains some of the more detailed aspects of each topic. The examiner's tips are really useful too! Amazon reviewer

Easy to understand and informative I bought this book as my mum had a heart attack and I wanted to understand how the heart worked, what was going on and what could be done. It was really informative and I found it easy to understand, it was perhaps an unusual book to be sat reading on a cardiac ward but it helped me understand what was going on. I would thoroughly recommend this for anyone wanting to learn more about the heart and cardiology. Amazon reviewer
