Best Non-fiction Book That I Have Read?
Last October I was in Calvary hospital, Hobart, for revision of an artificial hip. My cardiovascular system decided to play a few games with the result that I was referred to Cardiology. After a battery of tests I was informed by Mr Warrick Bishop that I was suffering from Atrial Fibrillation. This charming gentleman briefly explained what that is and prescribed a treatment regime which I am still following. He did mention that he had written a book on the subject!
Recently, after a completing a messy move to Burnie, I purchased a copy of Warrick's book and once I started reading it I couldn't put it down! It is a masterpiece of form and function approaching the topic from different perspectives and absolutely demystifying a complex subject - this is from someone who gave up biology in 2nd year of high school! Interestingly I find answers to medical situations that had arisen with my parents and with other people of a similar vintage. I cannot recommend this book highly enough. It is also available as a Kindle eBook which is great for having to hand and preserving my copy of the excellent hardback version.

Easy to understand book
Excellent book for explaining what happens with Afib for ordinary people like me. It has diagrams; talks about medicines; brief studies of why things were done for different scenarios since everybody is not alike. I got another copy to give to a friend and one for my brother-in-law, who also has Afib.

Everyone should read this
It was very readable, only took a few minutes but it explained Arial Fivilllation simple and easily. I keep it on my iPhone and get friends to read it when we visit. Thank you
