| comprehensive and invaluable resource, June 7, 2007 |
|
I am training to be a nurse anesthetist at a top medical school. I need to have the wits of an advanced practice nurse and the knowledge of a med student. This book is an invaluable resource. It's straightforward, but not "anesthesia for dummies". Comprehensive. Everything I need.

This book is a wealth of information on the diseases that are present in the patients you will be anesthetizing.

| Excellent for reference and study, July 19, 2005 |

This is now the fourth edition of this textbook that the reviewer has purchased. The first edition was the reviewer's companion during the senior year of medical school and residency training, when the appropriate sections were read whenever encountering patients with one of the discussed diseases. The second edition was the reviewer's most-used texbook during preparation for the anesthesiology oral examination. Most recently, a second copy of this most recent edition was purchased as the required textbook for a resident rotation in preoperative evaluation. This book has a place on the shelf of any anesthesiologist who is preparing for the oral boards or in practice.
The pathologic "horses" are well discussed, which makes this book an excellent starting point for a reasonably bright medical student interested in anesthesiology. A number of "zebras" are also presented, but there is not much detail concerning the "unicorns". The emphasis is a bit heavier on adult diseases than pediatric disease. For the real "unicorns" in adults and children, there are books devoted exclusively to the anesthetic implications of uncommon diseases in general, or genetic diseases in particular.

| Very Good, August 8, 2004 |
|
This book is very good for the integration of patient care with pathophysiological conditions or co-morbidities. A must have before addressing your patients with higher ASA number assignments.
