Detailed and focused. The only downside is that the American Heart Association is coming out with its new recommendations next month (10/2010) and so this book will likely no longer be up to date. My guess is that they will increase the compression to breath ratios from 30:2 to 50:2. We will see. Also I don't know how to give a book like this 5 stars when it achieved what it was designed for and not much else.

Short and sweet - even shorter since the information for each section was about 80% the same as the section before making it an even faster read. Still, if you're going to save a life, this would be the first step down that road.

Good reference and update to latest changes in CPR practice.

I read this for my First Aid/CPR/AED class.
