I picked up this book during an AHA meeting on my first year of cardiology fellowship and have been continuously using it ever since. I have not found a book that was more suitable for the purpose of knowing the essentials of treating arrhythmias. It is a no-nonsense, easy to read and understand guide to all the drugs that may have confused you as a cardiology trainee, or even full fledged cardiologist who hasn't used these medications regularly.
The book is extremely well organized, and covers the basic properties of these drugs, how they should be used (or not used), what they should be used with, and basic algorithms for arrhythmia management. I consistently advocate using this book to other cardiologists in training.
To note, it is a bit pricey, but it is definitely worth it.
