From the reviews:
"No other condition that afflicts critically ill individuals has captured the interest of clinical researchers as much as sepsis and its dreaded complication, septic shock. … what probably began as a well-meaning attempt to collate our current knowledge on sepsis into a concise volume ended up as an easy-to-read, relatively succinct review of the pathophysiology and treatment of acute pulmonary conditions in critically ill individuals. … it is a digestible compendium on the causes and treatment of respiratory conditions on critically ill individuals." (Guillermo Gutierrez, Respiratory Care, Vol. 50 (9), 2005)
