Rezensionen / Stimmen
This book bridges the gap between a large, highly detailed reference book, and a small pocket guide. It is an absolute must for those in training, and anyone interested in cardiology. * Hannah ZR McConkey, The British Journal of Cardiology * This guide is a perfect resource to both guide your studying and ensure your success. It includes all the high yield material for the KBA, exploring exactly what you need to know in a digestible manner. Couldn't recommend a better study aid for this exam! Perfect revision guide. Well written, high yield material. * NJon, Amazon customer review * For someone that's closing on their KBA exam, I can honestly say that this book is a must have. The author presents gem after gem of information in a highly effective manner. The contents are concise but it contains plentiful information needed to pass the examination. The bullet-pointed outline and diagrams are brilliant for memory retention. Such a great way to learn for revision. It is worth and highly recommended purchase. A top-notch book to score for KBA exam! * Sharifah Zamya, Amazon customer review * As great as it is to have large reference books like Braunwald's The Heart etc., in terms of practical use, I've always wanted a concise resource which I can read from cover to cover, and which will give me the confidence to deal with everyday clinical issues in cardiology (and hold my own in any intellectual discussions around the evidence base etc. on a ward round!). This book achieves that perfectly, and I believe is really quite unique in that sense. Really excellent. Well done. Essential. * David Holt * Having just read this book from cover to cover, I can vouch for the accuracy of its content and its relevance to cardiology trainees preparing for the KBA exam. Largely well written, it covers all key cardiology topics (mirroring the national curriculum) and also encompasses relevant UK and ESC guidelines. It will undoubtedly help with the KBA exam but also provides some very handy tips for daily practice, making it relevant to anyone with an interest in cardiology. Essential for KBA exam! * Mr S Kandan * Whenever I've taken post-grad medical exams (MRCP etc) I make sure I have the one book that give me the succinct and up-to date knowledge that will give me the confidence to perform well. This book is perfect because of its easy to digest bullet point and illustration style. Would also highly recommend for any core medical or cardiology trainees. Excellent revision book. * Will Evans, Amazon customer review *
