Authored by three world experts, this is a clinically focused book
on pediatric anesthesia. "The Manual", as it is known, has long
dominated the market for a succinct and practical resource on
administering anesthesia to children and is used by residents,
general anesthesiologists, nurse anesthetists, and pediatric
anesthesiologists. This new edition retains the basic structure of
the book and is updated throughout. Text-heavy in the current
edition, the Seventh Edition features the addition of figures to
chapters where they are especially helpful (eg, the chapter on
cardiovascular surgery and cardiac procedures) and makes greater
use of headings to break up the text and guide reading. From
reviews of the Sixth Edition:" This is an extremely well written
book that I would recommend highly to anyone involved in
anaesthetizing children. It is comprehensive enough to provide an
excellent reference for trainees and general anaesthetists who
occasionally deal with paediatric cases, while at the same time
giving valuable supplemental information for paediatric
anaesthetists encountering an unusual procedure or condition. In
short, this is a book that would make a welcome addition to any
anaesthetist's mobile library." --Anaesthesia
