Accident and Emergency X-Rays Made Easy
This book is a very useful pocket sized text. Most A & E Doctors, Radiographers, Nurses and G.P.s will find that it is a good little book to have to hand. Some of the information is a little out-dated, and the small size precludes in depth detail, but I would recommend it to a friend.

Another good read in the Made Easy series
A nice summary of some key points to revise before working in A&E or orthopaedics as a medical student. Similar style to others in the series (Chest X-ray Made Easy & Abdominal X-rays Made Easy): lots of well-labelled pictures and easy-to-read text.
