"Strong point of this multi-author textbook, which is not captured in the 'trauma chapter' of most major anesthesia textbooks, is the valuable detailed coverage of most of the spectrum of trauma care that our specialty will encounter. ... this is a good first attempt to cover an important area of clinical anesthesia in greater detail than is offered by major textbooks." (Doreen Yee, Canadian Journal of Anesthesia/Journal canadien d'anesthesie, Vol. 62, 2015) "This is a multiauthored review of anesthetic practice, pain management, and critical care of injured patients. ... Anesthesiologists and intensivists at all levels managing injured patients are the intended audience for this book ... . Each chapter has an ample reference list with citations dating to within one year of publication." (David J. Dries, Doody's Book Reviews, December, 2014)
