book purchase:
The purchase experience was just horrible.
Paid for next day delivery, but was informed -after purchase payment was made- that the deliver was scheduled for the next 4 days.
When tried to cancel the order, I was told by the agent from India that this was NOT possible.
The book I received was not in it's original package.
I will NOT recommend this site to any one.
An excellent text book for clinicians:
If you are looking for an easy to read and concise nuclear cardiology text book, then this is a book for you.
I wouldn't waste my time reading the physics part ( get the Chandra book)but otherwise this is a superb book for the clinician. If you are a cardiology fellow setting for the nuclear cardiology boards you might want to consider using this book as your main text.
