“This textbook will be an excellent resource not only for residents and nurse practitioners, but also for the general surgeon looking for a thorough review of trauma and surgical critical care.”

"This edition continues an effective and necessary marriage of two disciplines. Chapters are written by leaders in the field and emphasize pearls for the clinician. Most helpful to surgeons are operative techniques for infrequently seen injuries, such as difficult vascular lesions of the torso and extremities. An attractive set of presentations reflect lessons learned from contemporary battlefield resuscitation and operative and critical care management." - David J. Dries, MD (University of Minnesota Medical School)

"This textbook will be an excellent resource not only for residents and nurse practitioners, but also for the general surgeon looking for a thorough review of trauma and surgical critical care."
