ATLS: Advanced Trauma Life Support for Doctors (Student Course Manual), 8th Edition


A critical step in the treatment of trauma is beginning ATLS. This concise book does for trauma what ACLS does for “code blues.” Very straightforward, even a layperson could understand much of what a trauma surgeon is thinking when a critical “multi-trauma” arrives at his emergency center. Critical for anyone thinking of working in the ER. This bookis also indispensible in giving surgical interns the confidence they need to handle tough situations in the hospital.

Case Files Emergency Medicine

The closest you can get to seeing patients without being on the wards!

Students need exposure to cases to pass the USMLE Step 2 and theemergency medicine shelf exam. This book presents 47 clinical cases illustrating essential concepts in emergency medicine. Perfect for the clerkship and the USMLE Step 2, each case includes an extended discussion, definitions of key terms, clinical pearls, and USMLE-style review questions. This interactive learning system helps you to learn instead of memorize.
*47 emergency medicine cases with complete discussions
*Clinical pearls highlight key points
*USMLE-style comprehension questions with each case
*Primer on how to approach the patient
*Proven learning system improves shelf exam scores
“Superior to other case file books.”
-Chang-Kun Choi, Medical Student, Midwestern University School of Medicine
“Using clinical scenarios not only makes the reading fun and interesting, but it is far more engaging than sitting down with a bulleted text and reviewing detail after detail. This is a much better way to learn clinical information. I have not read a book like this before, and I certainly have enjoyed it.”
–Eric Hossler, Medical Student, James H. Quillen College of Medicine
“I LOVED this book! I would recommend this book to all third-year students… The book uses a clinical approach and does not lose sight of the pathophysiology behind the disease — GREAT preparation for being on the wards! The subject matter is also deceptively detailed, with much more information than one normally finds in a text of case files. The reader can use this book as either a rigorous self-test or a read-through introduction to the subject. Once again – a GREAT text!”
–Elizabeth Johnston, Medical Student, Emory University

Essential Surgery: Problems, Diagnosis and Management



Essential Surgery is a comprehensive and highly illustrated textbook for clinical students as well as a practical manual for junior doctors and those preparing for postgraduate qualifications in surgery. The unique feature of the book is its problem-orientated nature as distinct to the traditional disease-based structure.
*Explains the pathophysiological basis of surgical diseases and of their management to help bridge the gap between the basic medical sciences and clinical problems.
*Adopts a problem-solving rather than a disease-orientated approach to diagnosis and treatment, reflecting current teaching trends which emphasise the full understanding of how a diagnosis is made and why a particular treatment is used.
*Includes information about epidemiology, disease prevention and the provision of health care, and tries to relate the community aspects of surgical problems to aetiology, disease prevention and primary care.
*Contains outlines of common surgical operations, to enable students and junior doctors to explain operations to patients and to allow them to participate intelligently in the operating department, as well as giving them an understanding of how to prevent complications.
*Includes a major section on accident surgery related to the general surgeon.
*Now with full text online on Student Consult.
*Comprehensively updated in line with the evolution and refinement of surgery over the past few years, by an expanded author team and an advisory group of surgical and radiological experts.
