From the reviews of the second edition: “This is a concise but thorough review of the research which has led to the current guidelines in the use of coronary intervention in acute ST elevation myocardial infarction. … This is broad review and quick reference for medical students, physicians in training, midlevel practitioners, and clinicians involved in the daily activities of a cardiac catheterization laboratory. … This book provides a succinct summary of the major clinical trials that support the current state-of-the-art for treatment of ST elevation myocardial infarction.” (Hugh M.
