On Having a Heart Attack: A Medical Memoir

This book could save your life or the life of someone you care about. It's lively and intelligent, and it's actually an entertaining narrative (if you can imagine a book about having a heart attack being entertaining.) This is a book that's witty and anecdotal, a book you won't be able to put down. It's a short book, but it tells you everything you need to know. It has an excellent glossary and a brief, smart list of things to do in order to avoid having a heart attack.
