'I’m about to start EMT/AEMT/Medic/CCT class, and I’d like to get a head start. What books should I be reading?'

I’m also donning my flame-retardant underoos in anticipation of the inevitable backlash at the books I’ve chosen to include and those I left off the list. So, without further ado, I give you Kelly’s Totally Subjective and Opinionated List of Books Every EMT Should Read, in no particular order.
