From the reviews:
"This book reviews common ECG abnormalities in various populations and focuses on the prevalence and incidence of these abnormalities as well as the prognostic implications of the findings. It uniquely provides an extensive series of tables listing normal standard of ECG intervals, amplitudes, and vectors in various populations … . Investigators using electrocardiography as a research tool are the intended audience … . This is a thorough book that will be useful to its targeted audience." (Marc N.
