Format:Hardcover
This boock is based on beautifully drawn colour pictures which make it easy to understand the anatomy related to peripheral nerve block and enable you to mentally visualise the path of the nerve stimmulator needle when performing the block. The text gives a clear description of how to perform individual blocks making it a suitable companion in the Anaesthetic Room. Don't leave it lying around. Well worth the expence for people interested in peripheral nerve blockade.

This book was recommended to me by one of my anaesthetic consultants. As a anaesthetic trainee this book is fantastic for learning regional blocks and reviewing associated anatomy. The book is simple and concise, with excellent diagrams making it, in my opinion, a must for any anaesthetist interested in regional anaesthesia. The only minor down side is that there is little on ultrasound guided blocks. Overall a fantastic book.

I am a CRNAP practicing in an ansethesia group that does a great deal of regional anesthesia. We have developed a library of texts to be used for reference/review. This text is the best of the lot with clear concise illustration and excellent text. If you wish to have just one book to use as a reference, this one is it.

beautifully illustrated guide

Format:Hardcover
This book although pricey covers just about every block one could imagine and does it in a way that shows off all the strengths of the atlas-as-textbook.
After a general chapter on equipment each section is started with a review of the pertinent anatomy of the region followed by descriptions of the various blocks for that region. Each technique is prefaced with a brief discussion of the 'big picture' of the block, then the local anatomy, positioning of the patient, and placement of the needle is covered. There is a nice little concluding paragraph covering gothchas.
Whilst this text is aimed at the trainee/practising anesthetist, others may find it useful. For example fellows in pain management will find all the 'standards' are covered. It's only weakness arises in this context: use of supplemental imaging is not discussed except in facet blocks.
