This book and the corresponding Web site can be recommended as an essential reference source for the busy clinical intensivist." – Anesthesiology, review of the 5th Edition

"Every ICU should have one, and every ICU should have access to the on-line version, which I think is more useful than the paper version." – British Journal of Anaesthesia, review of the 5th Edition

"This remains the leading comprehensive reference in this field.
