520 _aCardiology in a Heartbeat is a unique text, written specifically for medical students. Compiled by a team of students and practising doctors and consultants from the University of Edinburgh Medical School, the book provides practical advice to enable the reader to get to grips with the subject quickly and easily. This unique author team brings the reader the best of both worlds: the student authors focus on what students need to know whilst the contributions from senior medics ensure the book is accurate and covers the subject completely. The attractive full-colour layout and short, consistent chapters mean the book is easy to navigate through; this is especially useful when the reader wants to quickly brush up on a particular topic or find an answer to a specific question. The book boasts an array of design features specifically for students (such as 'pro-tips', 'exam essentials', mnemonics, 'in a nutshell' sections) to really help the reader understand the subject and, just as importantly, to pass their exams.
