Prystowsky and Klein's book has essentially the same title as that by Waugh and colleagues (see above). The type is smaller, the pages are bigger, and the total number of pages is about the same. An entire chapter is devoted to surgical therapy; Waugh gives this topic only two pages. The chapter on pharmacologic therapy is longer than that in Waugh but may be harder to read; the table in Waugh seems more useful. The chapter is followed by 133 references (Waugh lists only 36). Those in need of a book on arrhythmia may need to review both to decide which one better suits them.
