"Professor Rosenfeld is a highly respected authority of neurosurgery and neurotrauma care. He masterfully edited this elegant book with 28 contributors mainly from Melbourne, Victoria, but also from USA and UK. It is a credit to his organisation and leadership skills that this multi-authored book has amazing structural consistency throughout its 28 chapters. The editor aimed this book to a broad audience of various medical and surgical specilties, from medical students to specialists, from rural doctors to specialist centres with neurosurgical training programme and also to paramedics, nurses, physician assistants and allied health professionals...In Australasia, all hospitals who are managing injured patients should have this book in their libraries; certainly, I recommend it to my students, trainees and trauma fellows. In conculsion, Professor Jeffery Rosenfeld's book is a didactic, well-illustrated coverage of a very important aspect of trauma care. The book represents the optimal balance between the update of the latest scientific evidence and the practical aspects of the everday trauma care." Zsolt J.
