Recenzii
“Given the rapidly growing geriatric population presenting to the emergency department, a book like this is well timed, particularly because there are too few resources on this topic. This book fills this void and the authors succeed in writing a book that can be easily embraced by general emergency providers, but is nuanced enough to provide an in depth and thorough exploration of the subject.” (Callie K. Schnitker, Doody's Book Reviews, September, 2018)
