From the reviews of the second edition:"This is collection of papers identified by an expert panel as defining contemporary practice in critical care medicine. Abstracts, figures, and summaries from key papers are provided. Senior trainees or fellows in critical care medicine and academic practitioners or senior clinicians in the field may find this work of interest. … This unique contribution presents the work that defines much of current intensivist activity. … anyone with a significant interest in critical care will enjoy this collection." (David J. Dries, Doody’s Review Service, September, 2008)"Classic Papers in Critical Care provides a highly informative, easy-to-read overview on the fundamentals of intensive care medicine. … This book is highly recommended for intensive care specialists or general physicians with interest in critical care as well as physicians-in-training or intensive care fellows who not only want to know how to practice evidence-based critical care according to the latest insights but also want to understand the fundamentals underlying these guidelines." (Marcel Levi, Journal of the American Medical Association, April, 2009)
