Rezensionen / Stimmen
"I highly recommend this reference text to all anesthesiologists involved in trauma care. Residents and fellows will also gain significant insight, enhance their global knowledge base, and become well rounded practitioners through the expertise of many contributing authors to this text."
Ian Zunder - The Ottawa Hospital, University of Ottawa
"...The editors are eminently qualified and have succeeded in producing an authoritative and comprehensive textbook on trauma....this two-volume set is an extremely valuable contribution because of the importance of the subject, the fact that the topic has not been so comprehensively covered in one text until now, and because of the wisdom of the editors."
-Vice Admiral Richard Henry Carmona, 17th General of the United States of America
"...a very compelling and important resource in the management of trauma....strongly recommended."
-Kenneth L. Mattox, Chief of Surgery, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas, U.S.A.
