 Rating:  - Bob Page is the MAN!I have been a medic since 1995. I have drug my feet about learning something new. I recently took 2 classes from Bob Page. If you are in EMS or public safety you know that most continuing ed classes are not inspiring shall we say. They are a required formality for keeping your license or certification. Well, Bob Pages are different. I took capnography and then 12 lead EKGs. I learned an incredible amount of information quickly. It was outstanding. This guy knows how to teach. If you are buying this ... Read More Rating: - 12 Lead ECG for the Adult Care ProviderThis is a great book to learn or learn more about EKG's. I encourage anyone to purchase this. He is also a great speaker. If you can go to one of his courses, then, you would come back more knowledgeable and feel more confident when looking at and trying to read EKG's. Rating: - ExcellentGreat coverage of twelve lead. I have used several other 12 lead texts and this is by far the best. Rating:  - not too bada little disapointed. good book. He failed to covey the excitement he puts into his class. Rating: - Fantastic way to learn 12 leadsI was in a panic. I had a 12-lead final exam coming up and wasn't comfortable with the intrepretations. I ordered this book and studied it for a week before the exam. My score: 105% (There was a five point extra credit question). I highly recommend this book.
