Reviews
'This book succeeds in lowering the hurdle of professional exams, making it more likely to be cleared at a first attempt. It covers the curriculum in an easy-to-read format, providing the important facts along with key references for more detail and is easy to dip into in spare moments. Our specialty admits patients from every other specialty in the hospital, we can seem jacks of all trades and masters of none; a strength of this volume is many authors are single organ specialists distilling their knowledge of complex conditions into accessible and clinically useful information. Aimed mainly at doctors taking the FFICM exam this book will be useful for all trainees undertaking an attachment to critical care as well as ACCPs and other Allied Health Professionals and nurses. It is a book deserving of its space on the unit bookshelf.' Anna Batchelor, Clinical Lead, Getting It Right First Tome (GIRFT), Past Dean FICM and President of ICS
