This textbook is considered by many to be the seminal reference for hyperbaric medicine today. I concur. Its comprehensive, up to date references make it a must for any medical library, whether you practice hyperbaric medicine or not. The release of the second edition was timed to coincide with the publication of the first text devoted solely to hyperbaric facility safety: Hyperbaric Facility Safety: A Practical Guide, also available from Best Publishing. As editior of the text on hyperbaric safety, I think they make a perfect complementary set: one that covers the spectrum from medical to practical operational issues.
As a hyperbarist physician, it is an essential resource for understanding and treating your patients. Full of reference material that will help you discuss and decide the indications and treatment options for very complicated cases in your daily practice.
As a practicing general surgeon, this is just what I needed for the addition of Hyperbaric medicine to my practice.
Ecsllent book highly recommend any physician involves wound care
