Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Phenomenal text for quick review
Great for reviewing most everything you'll come across in the ER. If you need to brush up on certain topics while working quick and to the point.
Rating: - My favorite reference
This is a crucial tool when you're on a busy shift in the ED. It's a practical reference, not a study guide. A patient comes in with radiation keratitis. Do you use steroid drops? Beats me. Thats when I go to this baby. This is my most used reference. Very well organized and easy to use.
Rating:  - For Medical Students, Physician Extenders and Interns
Its an okay book with decent tips and information but its really too brief and should not be relied on solely for information. Its a great book for medical students and starting interns and physician extenders.
Rating: - Great content, but not pocket-able.
5-min. Emergency has the (very useful) information of a pocket-reference in a non-pocket size. I find the PDA version MUCH more useful on a day-to-day basis. (I use Skyscape's version--I think there are others.) The bulleted, abbreviated style works very well on a PDA screen, and becomes quick and pocketable, something the hardback just can't do.
Rating: - Simple. Easy.
This is a useful textbook to have as a handy, quick reference. Not optimal for studying or new learning, but a helpful review. The material is thoroughly researched & easily accessible. I give it a "B".
