I just picked this up at the library. I was going to wait until I had finished the book to post about it, but I couldn't wait. It's really, really interesting for those of you who are interested in the burn unit and what goes on there. It also covers some of the history of burn treatment.

Dianacs,

I just finished reading this book and I truly enjoyed it. I was captured by the depth of Barbara Ravage's detail and research on burns. As a nursing student, I was thrust into another world of nursing that I would never have considered. I would like to hear what some of our burn nurses have to say about this book and the information about burn units.

Highly recommended!

I agree; it is a great book. I'm looking forward to seeing how it compares with the burn unit I plan on working in after graduation.

Right On. I've worked in burns for 15 years and the book is accurate. I enjoyed reading it and her perspective as an "outsider" was precise. Also enjoyed the historical information about burn care. Highly recommended for other burn nurses.

Wow,

Strangely enought, I have picked this book somewhat at random at the public library. I am waiting to read it.
I am a 33 m working on getting into an RN program and burn patients fascinate(and scare) me.

Any ideas where I can find this book in Australia ?

I would like to use it in a report due in 3 weeks ( Presentation )

Any ideas would be GREAT

Thanks
