Jason PY - 2016 T2 - The Atlas of Emergency Medicine, 4e AB - Within a given medical specialty, typically two or three major textbooks help define the breadth and depth of a discipline. This Atlas of Emergency Medicine, for the field of emergency care, is one of these defining works. First appearing in 1997, the 4th Edition of the Atlas is now published in multiple foreign languages and available electronically, which makes it universally available and important for patient care across the globe. As many acute diagnoses are made visually, and many physicians are visual learners, the Atlas of Emergency Medicine serves as an outstanding educational and reference tool for the medical student, resident, and particularly the practicing emergency physician. It is a useful adjunct in preparation for the pictorial section of certification tests. This Atlas also serves as a valuable resource for other ambulatory care specialties such as pediatricians, general internists, family physicians, physician assistants, and nurse practitioners, by providing an approach designed by emergency physicians for patients with emergent conditions.
