 Should have bought it long ago, May 08, 2007

One of the most helpful anesthesia texts for the clinical setting I have ever bought. Really gives you a clue what to expect in the O.R. with different kinds of cases, what to think about, problems that can come up. It includes all the physiology and pharmacology that other texts have but shows you how it all applies clinically. Fabulous resource.
