We use them in our PEPP class. We bought them from (instead of direct from the publisher) as had the best pricing.

Improves on the prior editions and makes it easier to look up specific types of conditions. I'll keep this one in my library.

Though the information is good and what I would expect but drastically let down by the quality of paper, it feels like a glossy magazine and not printed on good quality paper. With in two hours of browsing the pages had already began to curl. Really poor value of print quality. One star is being extremely generous!

This was an optional book for my Paramedic class. It arrived earlier than expected and in excellent condition, but the book itself isn't that useful. I wish I'd put my money elsewhere.

Goog and clear book. Thank You :)

just what I needed for class
