Sommario/riassunto |

Since 1980, the number of people in U.S. prisons has increased more than 450%. Despite a crime rate that has been falling steadily for decades, California has led the way in this explosion, with what a state analyst called "the biggest prison building project in the history of the world."

Over the years we have heard many complaints that there is no very simple book on cardiac pacing for real beginners. We have also heard that all the books on cardiac pacing are too complicated and impossible to understand by beginners. Many have voiced the hope that one day someone would write a book in the same style as Dubin's book on basic electrocardiography which is a huge bestseller with well over a million sold in many languages. A 'Dummy' book on cardiac pacing would appeal to nurses, cardiology technicians, medical students and pacemaker companies for training their staff. We started |
