University of Minnesota Medical School, 28-JAN-07 -- This is the third edition of an immensely popular overview of critical care practice. Practitioners at all levels will benefit from this work.

Production quality has been significantly enhanced with improved artwork and paper stock. I believe this edition will be as popular as its predecessors have been.
