Book excerpt: An authoritative, yet concise reference book for medical personnel facing the problems of managing the victims of ballistic trauma, working under the arduous conditions of war but more commonly in everyday situations in hospitals. Ballistic trauma is becoming an increasingly important area as every A&E department is presented with victims of civil violence more frequently than ever before, and during times of war all those involved in military surgery have to manage victims. Therefore this book aims to bring together the science behind, and the management of, ballistic trauma. The intention is to provide surgeons with an understanding of the fundamentals of this area and its mechanisms and some insight into the significance of new weapons as well as the variations on the principles of management. 'Ballistic Trauma' will enable the clinician facing a clinical problem to feel sufficiently informed as to make coherent choices appropriate to the circumstances.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive interdisciplinary reference work for wound ballistics Basics The book begins by providing the necessary basic knowledge about physics, ballistics and ammunition and weapons. Then it describes the behaviour of projectiles in humans and animals (the physics of gunshot injuries) and introduces the experimental simulation of gunshot wounds, including the materials suitable for this purpose. Applications These basic principles can be applied in forensic medicine and criminalistics. The gunshot wound provides some forensic traces and the experimental reconstruction helps to understand the dynamic crime process. The wounding potential of non-lethal weapons can be determined. In emergency and war surgery, injuries caused by small arms bullets and fragments as well as by gas jets (of gas weapons) can be assessed. International conventions could be freed from undefined terms (such as “unnecessary suffering”) with the help of physical quantities. Reference work Detailed tables as e. g. ballistic data of numerous cartridge types, also older ones, material properties, as well as many otherwise difficult to access data and a trilingual glossary of ballistic and technical terms in the languages German, English and French. NEW Wound Ballistics of European Police ammunition References to recent research results Partly coloured illustrations Due to the increase in terrorist and criminal activities worldwide, it is not only members of the armed forces who are affected. Surgeons, forensic doctors, police officers and criminalists also need to know and be able to assess the specifics of gunshot wounds.
