This review is from: First Responder (7th Edition with CD-ROM) (First Responder (Bergeron)) (Paperback)
As a 30 year old that has absolutely no First Aid knowledge other than dealing with my own children and common sense, this book was really great. I've been using it for the First Responder class I've been enrolled in. Of course, it covers a lot of information and here in CA it does not cover everything that will be on the final exam, but it does come pretty darn close. The book has glossy colored pages all the way through. The CD is mildly helpful. It poses scenarios at you and then a series of questions in which you type up paragraph style answers. Then, it gives a paragraph form answer back at you. Reading their answer helps understand the correct response and the "why" that goes with it. It's not a true/false or mulitple choice style, which I feel is more helpful.
I found a book for assisting in testing out as a First Responder extremely helpful. It was white with a blue border on the cover.

Fantastic book,

This review is from: First Responder (6th Edition) (Paperback)
This is a terrific book. It's written at a very basic, reader-friendly level. Likewise, the information is presented in a logical, organized manner. Also, the Student CD-Rom contains tons of extra resources, that really helped me master the material.

A good book for all "emergency heros",
September 29, 1996 By A Customer
This review is from: First Responder (Paperback)
This book is very useful because of its very good pictures and
photographs. You can see all important facts at first sight.
That is very good for people who want to review things they
have learned some time ago. So that's why I think this is
a very good book, not only for all "real" first responders.
