Praise from ASPEN’s Publication Review Committee

Acid-base is a topic that challenges many clinicians; therefore, getting a fresh approach from an experienced educator is welcome. One of the nice features of the book is the section “How to Make This Book Work for You,” which highlights helpful information for beginners as well as those who already know the fundamentals and want more in-depth practice in a certain topic. It is a handy reference that goes beyond most general texts for educators, students, and clinicians who want to improve their ability to interpret blood gases under different clinical conditions.
