A must for your medical bookshelf!

This is one of the most valuable pediatric resources ever written. While the title suggests that it is written for the prehospital community, the no nonsense approach to pedaitric emergencies has application for anyone caring for children, from EMT to MD. There is something here for everyone to learn. The book's organized approach begins by highlighting growth & developement and how children respond to an emergency and then builds on that to provide an excellent overview of medicial emergencies and trauma care. The entire book places an emphasis on the continuum of care and the importancet of involving parents in the emegency care of their child. Well researched and strongly written, this book is appropriate for first time students or professionals who just want to brush up on their pediatrics
