Summary: icu book
Comment: the book has excellent summaries of pathophys behind what we see/diagnose/measure/do in the icu. the book does have significant drawbacks, though, namely that it is highly biased towards the author's occasionally contraversial opinions. my attendings (all critical care experts) have debated some of his recommendations. also, with the most recent version published in 1997 (and knowing that the acutal revisions were probably done a year or so before that) the book is 5 years behind the times.

in summary, good book for basics, for understanding how and why, for explanations of procedures and basic protocol. be wary of marino's unusual recommendations. be aware of more current recommendations. use other references as well for broader picture.

Rating: 4
Summary: When the doctor is not around! (hhhhmmm!)
Comment: I first found this book while working on Maui and have used it religiously ever since. It is always in my bag that I take to work. I have been working in ICU since 1995 and have learned so much from this book alone. If your an ICU RN and do not own this book....get one! Its worth every cent.

Rating: 5
Summary: My favorite
Comment: This book is rare because it is original. It welcomes you to the real world of critical care as seen by one expert physician. It was probably never intended for quick reference or board prep. The relatively large print and generous spacing make the book bigger but more pleasant to read.
