Certainly I enjoyed reading this handbook, easy to read and recall, well written and organized. It provides basic trauma overview management for medical students, residents level but not above that.the book lacks illustrations may be because it is a handbook???!

Overall, it is worth reading. It provides all the need to know trauma info in a pocket size

this is a great hand held intro to trauma surgery. the initial chapters of the book deal with subjects such as kinematics of injury, trauma systems and the basics of trauma resuscitation. after that, pretty much every system and its potential injuries are covered adequately for a book of this size. it should go without saying that this is meant to supplement, not replace larger texts.

i found it nice to have around as there can be some down time if the pager isnt going off.

This book is concise and thorough from the leaders in trauma surgery. I would highly recommend it.

The manual is updated, easy to reference and full of immediate use material. The diagrams and tables are superb and easy to navigate. The explanations are perfect for the "new" and the experienced for the immedidate reference "with benefits" of deeper understanding.
