UMBC Critical Care Transport Field Guide
Second to getting a Palm, I would suggest "UNBC Critical Care Transport Field Guide" and was sold to our transport class as we took a course entitled CCEMT-P (critical care emergency medical transport-provider). It is small enough to fit into your thigh pocket on flight fatigues or anywhere else and the pages are all covered so fluids will not stain them or rip easily. These last two issues are problems with Kathy White's book of Fast Facts, I personally used it in the ICU, but I think it (Kathy White) would get demolished in the field as its pages are tissue thin and would become soaked/stained very quickly. The rain is no place to be pulling out a Palm, I used the UMBC reference alot of times when the Palm was not accessible. Hope this helps.
