✦ Synopsis

The book contains a section (p, 281) on "Enzyme immunoassays for the detection of drugs in serum and urine", but the keyword "Enzyme immunoassay" does not appear in the index. There are many similar cases. This is indeed a pity, since a book on emergency medicine is naturally only as good as its index.

The clinician will regret particularly the omission of, inter a h , the following signs of acute pictures: diarrhea, unconsciousness due to lactacidosis, coma paraproteinaemicum, and pulmonary embolism.

The strength of the book lies in the emphasis on laboratory diagnostics, so that it can be recommended particularly to users in this field.
