This review is from: Trauma (Hardcover)
This textbook should be the standard for any surgeon taking care of trauma patients. Some of the graphics are poorly reproduced and dated, but the information is current and well presented.

the trauma bible,
By Roy Hobbs (Detroit, MI) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Trauma (Hardcover)
This is the most recent edition of the Trauma textbook and is essentially the gold-standard for the care of trauma patients and trauma-related problems. Having owned prior editions as well, I can't say that you need to rush out and upgrade with each new edition (like most textbooks), though this book is a must for anyone who is involved in trauma care.

This review is from: Trauma (Trauma (Moore)) (Hardcover)
Have read last two editions they keep getting better but unlike other texts that get morte in depth with each edition, this book is pretty superficial which is great for a resident but wears thin as an attending.
