Summary: Good book, for a text book
Comment: This book gives just enough information, just the need to know stuff and not the nice to know stuff. Its great for those of us who are not dying to be ICU nurses.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Not so great
Comment: While it does have some valuable information, many things in this book are not explained well. Also the information it not laid out well, it's rather difficult to read, the printing is rather cheap looking and the layout is poor.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Critical Care
Comment: Book provides great explinations and is an easy read. It is one of the better text books that I have read. I would highly recommend this book.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Very Basic
Comment: Good text for those thinking about critical care nursing. Loses value over the long term as a reference book because it is almost too basic. Missing some important aspects of frequently occuring diagnoses seen in critical care ( illeus, small vs large bowel obstruction) etc.
