Product Description

Review
Trainees will find this handbook useful for dipping into during their clinical practice, when faced with a procedure or problem they have not come across before. It represents good value for money. British Journal of Anaesthesia, 89 (2) This handbook is exceptional value... it is going to be much sought after in many different parts of the world... It should be in every theatre and of course every library and I am sure it will become the personal property of many busy anaesthetists in many parts of the English speaking world. Update in Anaesthesia, Number 13 Being an expert in anaesthesia and having a unique knack of placing people in a deep sleep that they barely can remember, I initially thought there was not much this book could really teach me. Well I was sorely mistaken. Barts and the London Chronicle, Vol 5, Issue 1 This book is a must for the novice anaesthetist. It lays out everything, and I mean everything, in a structured format. When you're on call and not sure how to approach a case, this book will tell you how... If you [are] thinking should I buy this book? Then don't think just buy it, you won't be disappointed. Doctor from Surrey, on amazon.co.uk Whatever the reason, we all have qualms about our anaesthetic abilities being challenged and found wanting. Our first impulse is to seek advice from the local expert. With the Oxford Handbook of Anaesthesia in the change-room locker (it's half-life on a bookshelf would be a matter of hours!) there is expert advice available at any hour. Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, Vol 30, No 5 This is the most comprehensive handbook I have encountered... This is a book with strong applicability for trainees and experienced clinicians. I expect to continue to use it frequently. Canadian Journal of Anaesthesia This is an exceptional book, which I believe will become the anaesthetists 'Bible'. Anaesthesia As the name suggests, the book is relatively compact, but still packs a punch. GKT Surgical Society website --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Review
This is a book for the trainee to know cover to cover, dipping into relevant sections to reinforce their experience before, during and after an anaesthetic. Consultants will also benefit as it provides a highly practical approach to keeping up to date with developments in anaesthesia outside one's area of day-to-day practice. (BMA Medical Book Competition 2007 )

5.0 out of 5 stars A must for all anaesthetists, 27 May 2002
By A Customer
This latest addition to the Oxford Handbook range is a truly magic little book. It is clinically orientated (divided into preoperative and
perioperative sections), contains a comprehensive drug formulary, plus detailed and useful chapters on Paediatric and Obstetric anaesthesia. The
scope is broadly aimed at senior trainees, but I have found the book to be extremely useful myself for 'checking' block techniques, rare syndromes and before teaching sessions. Overall it is a must for all anaesthetists and great value for money.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must for the novice., 19 Jun 2002
This book is a must for the novice anasethetist. It lays out everything, and I mean everything, in a structured format. When you're on call and not sure how to approach a case, this book will tell you how. The only problem is it's big,. but then I guess that can't be helped. If you thinking should I buy this book? Then don't think just buy it, you won't be disappointed.
