Review
'... It is a tribute to the editors of this book, and the contributors they have selected, that they have managed to produce a book of enormous quality on the science of resuscitation medicine.' The Lancet
'This excellent book, the first of its kind in the field of cardiac arrest, provides a balance of theoretical and clinical information. It achieves a level of authority and sophistication well beyond that of the advanced cardiac life support guidelines and will be of considerable use to all those practicing or teaching clinical resuscitation.' The New England Journal of Medicine
'The book has virtually everything one would ever want to know about the causes of cardiac arrest, the applied physiology, and its treatment. Physicians and nurses involved in the management of critically ill or injured patients should have Cardiac Arrest in their personal libraries for ready reference.' Resuscitation
'This is an extremely comprehensive text, covering all aspects of the current knowledge of resuscitation medicine. ... I would recommend this book to anyone with a major interest in resuscitation.' British Journal of Anaesthesia
'The first gut feeling on opening this book is the sheer wealth of expertise and knowledge that the authors are sharing with us. ... It achieves what it sets out to do in impressive style and can truly claim to be a comprehensive reference in advanced life support and resuscitation medicine.' Emergency Medicine Journal
