OMG!!! This is so weird. I JUST finished reading the book, open allnurses.com then I found this thread. The book is awesome. Love it so much.

There is a second ed. with update? Man I got to find that book ASAP!!!

Specializes in Critical Care, Emergency Medicine, Flight.

im kinda upset i couldnt get the update as an electronic copy for my ipad :(

I'm glad you folks enjoyed it. I just couldn't get in to it. Something about the narrative style made me feel so distanced from the stories. I felt super conscious the whole time that I was hearing someone's story, rather than being able to fall in to it and forget I was reading.

Such a great book. Gave it to some other flight nurses and even though they've been flying for a few years now, they loved the book too

I am a trauma junkie..its the endorphine kick or high you get when a serious case comes through the door. And you know you can deal with it..I love it!

I really enjoyed the book when I read it a couple of years ago. It was a factor on why I went through EMT training, it made me realize that I loved emergency medicine.

Excellent book, I've read it twice (both editions). Can't say enough about it!

I know this is an old thread. Is there a difference in the first and second edition? If I just finished the second would it be worth reading the first now?

Thanks
