As medical professionals, educators, and life-long learners we recognize the value in researching and exploring in depth those topics which hold our interest, either professionally or personally. While not an all encompassing list of resources, the bibliography is an excellent starting point for anyone, person or institution, who is preparing to enter the world of simulation, or who is looking to go the next step to refresh staff or upgrade services.
