Clinical Cases in Critical Care In Clinical Cases in Critical Care, the authors explore core clinical topics and basic sciences in a practical and realistic way, and include comprehensive discussions focusing on critically unwell patients with a variety of presentations and underlying disorders, including COVID-19, hypotension, stroke and drug overdose.

Further questions direct the reader to explore relevant clinical and scientific knowledge - similar to the structure of many professional oral examinations. The final section of the book consists of exam style questions in a multiple choice and single best answer style. Perfect for medical practitioners working in critical care settings, Clinical Cases in Critical Care provides a thorough and accessible reference for trainee physicians with an interest in critical and emergency care, as well as allied health professionals in the field. This engaging textbook will be an essential companion for anyone getting to grips with the foundation of specialist knowledge required by professionals working in intensive care medicine.

The survival of NATO as a viable alliance is currently challenged by a shift in the strategic balance of power, as well as by global events and contingencies that extend far beyond NATO's boundaries. In the face of these challenges, existing institutional mechanisms are proving inadequate to respond effectively. The distinguished contributors to this volume draw on their vast political and diplomatic experience to identify and analyze the problems confronting NATO for the remainder of the twentieth century. They make clear the need for a trans-Atlantic communication network among policymakers, scholars, and others-a network that will allow an ongoing process of analysis and assessment of NATO's strategic, economic, and political problems, along with the identification of appropriate reactions.
