Difficult to put down........ June 17, 2008
Kiki Dee (Ireland)
As someone who is about to embark on a Paramedic-in-training programme, I bought this book with the hope that it would give me a thorough understanding of what is in front of me. It has. It's hilarious, upsetting, insightful and extremely interesting to get such an inside perspective. I highly recommend this book to anyone - it's an eye opener. I can't wait to get started.

a real good book getting to the point of issues in the abulance service today, really got a feel of what he has to put up with.
A must have! March 24, 2008

Unfortunately for me, I also finished this book in just about two days - but have now started to read Reynolds' blog, Random Acts of Reality, everyday!
This book gets you down the street level and tells you what it is like to be an EMT serving the community. I live in Los Angeles, but can easily relate to each and every story told in this book. The stories are short one or two pagers that are easy to get through and leave wanting to get to the next one.
Tom Reynolds not only conveys the passion for his job, but the utter frustration felt by the EMS commmunity worldwide when people abuse the system. From the repeat drug user on his nth overdose this month to the pregnant woman calling for an ambulance because she doesn't want to pay for a taxi to take her the 300 yards to the hospital - it's all here.
If you've ever wondered what was going on with the sirens and flashing lights down the street, read this book!

great book. Brilliant description of working in the ambulance service. You warm to tom immediately. I read this book after reading a reccomendation for it in the book in stitche; the highs and lows of life as an A&E doctor. Both books are great - get them both
Fabulous! December 29, 2007

Tom Reynolds has a great sense of humour (although some might find it dark) which runs throughout the book, which is an excellent insight into the life of an LAS paramedic. 'Blood, Sweat and Tea' is a well written book, that's quick and easy to read, in fact I read it in two sittings as it's such a captivating read. If you're interested in the life of a paramedic then buy this book and enjoy!
