ReviewsDr Will Duffin, Joint Medical Director for World Extreme Medicine "The 2023 edition is a major update from the original, which hit the shelves 10 years ago, and brings home for me just how much clinical practice has evolved over the past decade ... The emphasis is very much on core principles rather than detailed discussion and the key messages are brought home with strong diagrams and images...it's all about getting the basics right! I get a lot of value from the 'Tips from the field' box, which is a reminder that PHEM is an inherently applied and practical discipline, and this is where the formidable collective experience of the author group really shines through. Definitely a thumbs up from me!"
