Review from previous edition "Every ICU should have at least one copy. I think all junior doctors who work on ICU will benefit from owning a copy."

British Journal of Anaesthesia

"It covers all the main, and many of the minor areas involved in intensive care, and will be a valuable aid to nurses and doctors alike... an excellent publication

Critical Care UK

"The information is presented in a concise, and clinically oriented fashion. Sections are well organized... it could serve as a good starting point for individuals who are less familiar with the complex problems often faced in critical care "

Annals of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada

"A dandy little book for those caring for severely or moderately ill adult patients. It covers most bases, fits in your pocket, has thoughtful bookmark ribbons... it is an excellent reference and does deliver on its promise to provide immediate guidance and practical information for any situation likely to be encountered... If you are caring for critically ill patients in your hospital, this is one of the books to have "

Canadian Journal of Rural Medicine

"Singer and Webb's book is an excellent handbook for those working on critical care... Its patient-centred, practical and fully referenced... "

Doody's Journal

“Must have - Professor Singer is an authority in the field and having his teachings in a format of quick consultation and easy learning as an Oxford Handbook for me is the ultimate. It is a very technical book that explains the key aspects of the management of the critical patient I recommend it to anyone who works in the intensive care unit, particularly to the anesthetic and resuscitation specialists.”

This edition of this highly respected handbook remains a go- to reference for all critical care clinicians. It is particularly well suited for Advanced Critical care Practitioners working in clinical practice as an on-shift reference manual for concise reinforcement of current best practice written by clinical experts. Easy to navigate and trust to complement and reinforce clinical decision making. The Oxford Handbook remains my favourite daily resource for at the bedside up to date, effective guidance.
