Prevention Is Better Than Cure - Easy Read
The book is clear, concise, and lays out a plan to be proactive in preventing a heart attack. It was quite easy to follow and understand. This comprehensive book will not only serve as a wake-up call for many but also save lives. I now have an interest in a CCTI where I didn't before.
The book explains the functions of the heart and how plaque is formed in the arteries and then how to detect and treat it. His primary focus, of course, is on prevention of heart disease and how you can accomplish that.
I feel much more comfortable talking to my doctor about this subject. I am much more prepared to hold an honest and informative discussion.
I also think that he didn't write to his potential reader base. Americans will not comprehend most of the notations for the lipid panel values. Might have noted American notations as well. He lost me there throughout.
Disclaimer: I was offered this book in exchange for my honest opinion of it.

Boy, did you bite off more than you can chew!
It is a really remarkable achievement to prevent a heart attack long before you even get the symptoms of the heart attack. In this book we have indicators that you can use to do just that! It is a very difficult thing to not have any pain or problem of which you know, but that you may have a problem a few years down the road. This book begins to explain how you may do just that. It is a primer but the explanations are concise and with a bit of humor as well. Get the book...it will give you some things to think about.

An easy to understand proactive approach to prevent cardio problems
This book is a must for anyone who has a history of cardio problems in their family or are experiencing problems of their own. In fact, if you aren't sure, you need to read this book anyway. I learned more about my heart, various tests and results than I would ever have imagined in this short and concise book. I am not a doctor and all the details and test results seem to blur for me. In this book Dr. Warrick provides cases and outlines test results compared to what would be ideal. I can now use this book as a guide when I review my results. More importantly though is that Dr. Warrick lays out a path to using CT scans to proactively prevent heart attacks rather than just treating the disease after you have one. Ironically, after I started reading this book, I developed a (non-heart) medical issue based on traditional medical test results in which a CT scan was used to further determine whether there was an actual issue. If works for one part of the body, why not for cardio as well? This is a great read presented in a very easy to understand format. I am grateful for having had the opportunity to read this book. It is a great reference book to have on hand.
