Since both Safer and Caroline were trained in Pittsburgh, maybe someone  
over on CCM-L would be able to find more information?

My guess  is that there's no direct relationship, and that the original
publication  was from a private or academic printing, long extinct.

But who  knows?

interesting. An Amazon  search turns up a European book "ABC of
Resuscitation" in the 5th edition,  as part of the 'ABC series' of
'basic'  medical books (about the  equivalent of the Little, Brown Spiral
Notebook series  here in the  states from what I can gather). 
Using "Peter Safer"  returns

Drs.  Safar and Elam are  credited with the earliest versions of
conventional CPR  in the  1950's.  Safar's obituary, as well as many
other (perhaps   derivative?) web references, mention his publication of
a book  entitled  "The ABC of Resuscitation" in 1957.  This would be  the
earliest published use of the term that I can find -- except that  I
can't  exactly find it.  There may be a copy or two preserved  in some
library  archive in Pennsylvania; but if it's included in any  formal
bibliography accessible via the internet, I'm not seeing   it.
