Reviews / Votes
Review of the previous edition:"This is a quality review of basic science and clinical practice anesthesia with high-quality book references for every answer explanation." -- (c)2022 Doody's Review Service, Austin D Ferguson, DO (University of Kentucky College of Medicine)
"...a great guide to prepare for certification examinations and also to start learning anesthesiology, even if exams are not imminent. I hope new editions will continue to be published as the field of anesthesiology advances." --Koh Mizutani (Department of Anesthesia, Osaka Rosai Hospital), Anesthesia & Analgesia, June 2020
