The one that is required by your class. Seriously, you will be tested by those objectives. They are very similar in comparison, but still have minute differences that can alter test answers. As well, your instructor may want to refer to a specific portion or chapter...
Good luck in school!

pick one. seriously, what R/r said is good advice. read wehat your told to read for class. for extra reading for your own persoanl edification, some of these are good books(some are crap) but wait till your done with school or at least know your class material cold becuase thats what you will be tested on.

In my class we used the Brady book. "Prehospital Emergency Care". The thing is roughly 2 inches thick, or 4 cm you crazy Canadian.
It's incredibly thorough and worked great. The included self tests were a big help too.

I used Emergency Care and Transportation of the Sick and Injured, Ninth Edition by Jones and Bartlett.
Every chapter in the book provides interactivities for you to experiment with and learn from on emtb.com
They have interactive review guides, interactive skill drills, assessment in action, ambulance calls with real case scenarios, videos with skills in action.
