"The forward to this large format, hard cover, 658 page excellentbook encapsulates why its topic is so important to the practice ofmodern emergency medicine." (BMJ, 13 April 2011) "Dr. Brian Rowe, his co-editors and contributors, havemasterfully designed a book to 'answer the direct,give-me-the-bottom-line questions emergency physicians ask in themiddle of their shifts' ... .Each chapter is extremelywell referenced and the index seems complete and is user friendly... .This will be my new goto text for evidenced-based answers tospecific clinical questions. It belongs in every emergency medicinelibrary, as well as on the shelf of those in charge of journalclubs and evidence-based lecture series." (Annals ofEmergency Medicine, November 2009) "This book alone takes on the difficult challenge of reviewingthe evidence based decisions that are still not ubiquitous in theemergency departments of America." (Doody's, August2009) "The best available evidence in a clear and concise manner.... Especially useful to medical and pharmacy residents becauseof their background in the topics covered in this book ... .It is asignificant evidence-based contribution to the emergency medicineliterature."
