Summary: A valuable reference!
Comment: I am a Registered Nurse working a variety of remote locations providing paramedic support. I have examined a number of reference publications and have found this to be one of the best. It is concise, easily accessable and provides sufficient information to perform most procedures listed. I agree that it may sometimes lack detail - however, you must draw the line between a ready reference and a definative text.

It would be an ideal electronic ref - hopefully OUP will consider this in the near future.

IMHO the best available.

Summary: A handy pocket-book for SHO's/junior residents starting out.
Comment: This is a welcome addition to the Oxford Handbook series, which is so popular with medical students and trainee doctors throughout the English speaking world. As an overview or introduction to Accident & Emergency Medicine it is comprehensive in the topic areas it covers. It does not dwell on theoretical detail, but acts as a practical guide for students and junior doctors unsure of the initial assessment and management of common emergency problems. A criticism I would offer is that this book is lacking somewhat in detail in terms of the management of many conditions, offering the advice "refer to specialist" all to frequently. In a climate where emergency physicians are expanding their role, this may limit the use of this book in the near future. Overall, for the medical student or first time doctor in A&E, this is a very useful resource to have readily available.
