"Principles of Critical Care is a very thorough and well-written textbook that has been carefully edited by three masters of intensive care medicine...It succeeds in achieving that tricky balance of being thorough and complete yet readable and practical. It's the kind of book that benefits all intensivists and anybody dealing with the critically ill."--Critical Care Medicine Critical Care Medicine 20070201
