"Handbook of Cardiac Electrophysiology: A Primer for the Uninitiated" is a first-of-its kind volume designed to meet readers where they are regarding their knowledge of the subject. For non-electrophysiology physicians, it simplifies the relevant diseases and includes laboratory practices and current therapies. This book offers clearly written electrophysiological information which can be utilized by medical professionals at all levels, from practicing cardiologists, to internists, to medical students. This book explicates topics such as how to manage cardiac electrophysiological diseases in the context of aging patients, and knowing when to refer patients for specialized care. In particular, those seeking information on device therapy, remote monitoring, and pharmacology will not be disappointed. Its format is such that it can be easily used as a reference title, as well as in clinical settings to impart rapid information on presenting cases. This will doubtless become the first book reached for by those wishing to learn more about any aspect of cardiac electrophysiology.
• Informs clinicians about electrophysiological diseases that are becoming more common in an increasingly aging population
• Explains cardiac electrophysiology to cardiologists and interventional cardiologists, enabling primary patient care and appropriate referrals
• Trains medical residents and cardiology fellows in electrophysiology when rotating through cardiology wards
• Explains cardiac electrophysiology to cardiologists and interventional cardiologists, enabling primary patient care and appropriate referrals
• Trains medical residents and cardiology fellows in electrophysiology when rotating through cardiology wards
Family medicine, internal medicine, and cardiology specialists and residents/ fellows in training for these specialties

Dr. Basu Ray is currently a staff Cardiologist and Cardiac Electrophysiologist at the Memphis Veterans Medical Center in Memphis, and an Adjunct Professor at the University of Memphis. He is a former faculty member in Medicine at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Harvard Medical School.
Dr. Basu Ray was appointed as an author of the American Heart Association (AHA) Scientific Statement on the role of meditation in cardiovascular risk reduction. He has delivered lectures on yoga at many premier institutes, including Harvard, MIT, Georgia Tech, Cleveland, and the Mayo Clinic. His research interests include use of AI data to predict emotional states like depression that can affect prognosis of cardiovascular disease, role of meditation, stress reduction and biofeedback on the mind-heart axis to prevent and treat cardiovascular pathology initiated in a stressed organism, and the study of Left Atrial Appendage (LAA) morphology to determine the factors that induce thrombus formation in patients with atrial fibrillation. His work has been published in leading journals, such as New England Journal of Medicine and Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine.
