Rezensionen / Stimmen
This is an extremely useful text which maps and demystifies the research process for prospective students and practitioners interested in undertaking research in the pre-hospital and ambulance settings. The book covers key topics and offers guidance for dealing with the issues, in a language and style that is easy to follow. -- Professor Paresh Wankhade, Emergency Services Management Expert, Edge Hill University, UK. It's all here in one book - what paramedics need to get them started on their journey into research. From basic principles to publication, the authors bring a unique prehospital care slant to explaining how research works, in a way which is clear and easy to grasp. -- Dr Alison Porter, Associate Professor in Health Services Research, Swansea University, UK An easy to read and comprehensive resource for junior pre-hospital researchers. Very comprehensive and covered the nuances of the field well. I will absolutely be recommending this to my post-graduate students. -- Prof Karen Smith, Director Centre for Research and Evaluation, Ambulance Victoria
