"The editors have expanded their focus on surgical techniques to include a more holistic assessment of patient care, with several areas of interest to anesthesiologists. ... We highly recommend that anesthesiologists with responsibility for trauma patients read and utilize this book frequently. Velmahos, Degiannis, and Doll are giants in trauma surgery, and their surgical insight on evidencebased approaches to care of the patient with penetrating trauma will prove valuable to anesthesiologists caring for such patients." (Markus M. Luedi and Richard P. Dutton, Anesthesia & Analgesia, Vol. 124 (3), March, 2017)
"The book is divided into seven sections dealing, successively, with prehospital care and resuscitation, surgical strategies in penetrating trauma to the different anatomic areas from head to pelvis, penetrating trauma to the limbs, and other topics. ... the book is useful, complete, readable and relevant, and as such should be of interest to all surgeons dealing with penetrating trauma, and specifcally to those not exposed to these injuries on an everyday basis." (F. J. Turégano, European Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery, Vol. 43, 2017)
"This is the second edition of a comprehensive textbook of trauma care with a focus on the patient suffering penetrating injury. ... Resuscitation and operative management are appropriately emphasized, but the scope of the chapters spans the full spectrum of trauma care from field assessment and resuscitation through rehabilitation. Senior surgical trainees and practicing surgeons, particularly those with only occasional contact with patients with penetrating injury, will benefit from this book, originating from an international group of authors." (David J. Dries, Doody's Book Reviews, December, 2016)
