Product Reviews
"It is a book that might be useful to anaesthetic consultants with an interest in obstetric anaesthesia, perhaps when faced with one of those rare and complex clinical problems that sometimes crop up unexpectedly. Certainly, higher trainees with an interest in the sub-speciality would find immense value in its detailed and thorough coverage. It would also function well as an oracle of knowledge for people of any background searching for answers in this field". Reviewed by British Journal of Anaesthesia, May 2015
"It has been five years since the last edition of Obstetric Anesthesia Principles and Practice was released. In the interim, there has been significant change in obstetric anesthesia practice, with an emphasis on ultrasound for regional anesthesia, noninvasive technologies for hemodynamic monitoring, and new labour analgesia modalities for delivery. These innovations are successfully incorporated into the fifth edition of the textbook which consists of 55 chapters descriptively organized into ten parts."
