This book is a very complete, yet easy-to-read introduction to ECGs. The format follows the same sort of Question-and-Answer style as Dubin's, yet the approach is more logical. It does not take very long to go through the book. I found several pearls or easy ways to remember things not found in the other introductory books. I would highly recommend this as a first text or as a review for anyone trying to fill in the gaps in their ability to read ECGs.

Emaneual Stein wrote this self-study 12 years ago. It is still and excellent self-study program. While it is not the definitive text is is perfect for folks looking for a first time text. Stein also has another book Rapid Analysis of Electrocardiograms that has greater depth.
