Terror medicine is related to emergency and disaster medicine but focuses on the constellation of medical issues uniquely related to terrorist attacks. The field encompasses four broad areas: preparedness, incident management, mechanisms of injuries and responses, and psychological consequences. In Essentials of Terror Medicine, these core concerns are addressed by a distinguished international authorship brought together by the three editors of this volume, who themselves are recognized experts in relevant disciplines: Shmuel Shapira, epidemiology and hospital administration; Jeffrey Hammond, trauma surgery and emergency response; Leonard Cole, bioterrorism and public policy. Essentials of Terror Medicine provides insightful and practical information for physicians, nurses, emergency responders, and other health professionals who may be called to service during or after a terror incident. It is indispensable reading for the medical community of the 21\u003csup\u003est\u003c\/sup\u003e century, in which diligence, continued education, and careful preparation for a variety of possible events are a preeminent responsibility. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Shmuel Shapira\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0387094113\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780387094113\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/10\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 452\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.72lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.10w x 1.00d","brand":"Shmuel Shapira","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43919634661631,"sku":"9780387094113","price":139.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_e5855183-b177-42e7-bfc2-0fb967c52280.jpg?v=1680810484","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/essentials-of-terror-medicine-shmuel-shapira-9780387094113","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
