    The book “Electrocardiogram Made Easy: A Fully Illustrated Handbook” has been designed keeping in view the requirements of the novice veterinary graduates and practitioners inclined to do cardiac evaluation of their patients. A chapter on self-exercise has been intended as a study aid to provide reader with an additional opening to assess his own understanding of an electrocardiogram. On one side of the page, ECG strip is given along with a short narration and a question. On the reverse side of the page, same ECG strip is again presented with the answer of the question and detailed analysis of the electrocardiogram.

    The book will help in simplifying the techniques of electrocardiography and assisting the readers in interpreting electrocardiogram so that the technique is extended to even primary veterinary practices for routine cardiac evaluation
