Review:

"All subtopics of emergency medicine are covered, with most common diagnoses illustrated. The best feature of the book is the quality of the pictures, and the ease with which the pictures are found. This is an excellent pictorial atlas of emergency medicine, with helpful updates and additions from the last edition. It is highly recommended for personal and emergency department libraries."--Doody's Review Services (Doody's 2002-12-13)
