Prior edition

The third edition of this textbook is a definitive work on the art and science of nuts and bolts clinical electrophysiology. To practice competent invasive EP you need to understand pretty much everything written here, as a starting point. I don't own the latest edition but have perused it several times at meetings. I don't think it compares to other books available that cover 3D anatomical mapping and newer technologies better. If you are an EP fellow, I would recommend getting an inexpensive 3rd edition of this book and look elsewhere for the more current technology. You don't want to end up being able to do AF ablations and not understand how to diagnose an antidromic AVRT.

Phenomenal book! Very easy to follow and the illustrated electrograms are of very good quality. This is an essential book for all EP fellows in training.
