"[It] demonstrates the range of trauma, and the implications of treatment... the book stands as a useful adjunct to the numerous manuals now available for the multidisciplinary trauma team." - Trauma, 6

"One of the strengths of Trauma is that the contributors come from a range of specialties and write with the practising trauma team member in mind, irrespective of their background and training. This multidisciplinary approach makes the text an accessible and useful reference to have by your side." - The Lancet

"This is a book to be recommended to all who have an interest in trauma but particularly to trainees who want an experienced guiding hand. They will have far to go to do better." - British Journal of Resuscitation, Volume 2, No 2
