And it remains a triumph. My involvement in the Oxford Handbook of Anaesthesia was inspired by my gratitude and admiration for the third edition of OHCM. Fully annotated and packed with taped-in additions, it got me through my junior doctor years brilliantly and remains a treasured reminder of my early career.
I adore the fact that OHCM (and its sister publications) contain stimulating and inspiring quotations from literature. It reminded me then (as an exhausted junior) of two things: first, there are other sources of wisdom and encouragement beside medical textbooks, and second, that, busy though the authors must have been, they still had time to read them!

This book provides a detailed review of state of the art knowledge on critical care topics as well as the latest research findings. It covers the core aspects in excellent detail, but is not so comprehensive as to make its daily use unfeasible. For each condition considered, discussion of the pathophysiology is integrated with observations on diagnosis and treatment in order to allow a deeper understanding. The book is scientifically based, with extensive references to published research. This will allow readers to investigate their individual interests further and will enable physicians to justify measures by providing a coherent, evidence-based strategy and relevant citations where needed. Core Knowledge in Critical Care Medicine will appeal to experienced practitioners as an aide-mmoire, but will also be of great value to a wide range of more junior staff wishing to complement their background knowledge with important facts applicable to everyday practice.
