Review
"The book seems to perfectly capture the field; the authors know who they are writing for."
"addresses common clinical scenarios faced by every clinician in the emergency department and provides significant pearls for improvement in thought processes and decision-making."
"The audience includes practitioners at any level in the field of emergency medicine, students to seasoned staff physicians."
"It is intended to be read one well-written, succinct chapter per day, and is specifically targeted to the high-energy, high task-switching individuals who are typically emergency medicine providers."
"well organized and thoughtful."
"It combines well the contributions of experts inside and outside of the field, which is relevant in the practice of emergency medicine today."
"Anyone, from early learner to seasoned professional, will learn from and likely thoroughly enjoy this book -- I certainly have!"
