This book is small and full of very useful information. It gives so much detail on things you didn’t know you needed to know but once you read it, it makes things make great sense. I would buy it again

5.0 out of 5 stars A true masterpiece
Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2013

Once in a while I buy a book that is extraordinary. Alexander Trott's is one of them. This book is not only useful for persons working in emergency care, but is excellent for just about everyone. Every parent should read it to cope properly with the unavoidable injuries of their kids. Normally books of this caliber are expensive, but this book at 54 $ and in a library binding is a bargain not to be missed. I will use and treasure this book as long as I live.

Bought for my daughter, a PA-C (Physician Assistant - Certified) at an the Emergency Room of a busy hospital, and quite a little plastic surgeon herself. I couldn't touch some of her work. The book has helped her smooth still more her technique and it appears easy to read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superlative - in every conceivable way
Reviewed in the United States on May 7, 2016

A chapter on wound care and suturing within a larger text on procedures Physician Assistants perform repeatedly referenced text and illustrations from this textbook by Dr. Trott. So I purchased the source material. To say that it exceeds my expectations is lame praise. This is simply an outstanding resource - clear, incredibly well-illustrated, concise without omitting any needful material. A superlative reference for anyone closing traumatic or surgical wounds.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Reference
Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2013
Verified Purchase
Nice book, easy to read with good explanations. This book is a good reference for anyone having to close wounds in the ED. I would say this book provides more than nursing skills, (one chapter is even dedicated just to irrigating techniques and the research behind the best solutions to use). However, if you are just wanting to learn how to tie, go to you tube.
