Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
The new 4th edition of the Oxford Handbook of Emergency Medicine (Oxford Medical Handbooks) is a great update for anyone working in an emergency department. The book is an update to the old books, but contains updated protocols. It is not the most comprehensive book, but then again it does not claim to be so as it is a handbook. It contains all the basics and is still in the same small format. I cannot find any fault with the book. Recommend
Format:Imitation Leather
Comprehensive content, well organised chapter system , tidy conscise text style. Only two sore points 1)The index is not quite comprehensive in parts. 2) The lack of diagrams or tables-there are spaces in the text where this could be added to help explain or draw readers to a good overview algorithm- i accept this outside oxford style but it could really help in terms of presentation and may even replace redundant text. Overall the comprehensive content, reference to national guidelines, discussion of complex issues, outwiegh the minor drawbacks. The book is an essential Emergency Physician text and sets the bar for quality.
Format:Imitation Leather
Really user friendly
Not an 'educational' tool, for quick diagnostic and management summaries ie its not full of the stats and history of a disease but lots of useful practical stuff
Must have for med students, juniors in A&E etc
