Editorial Reviews

"This is an outstanding guide to most aspects of this subspecialty. It is easy to read (and carry!), and should be essential reading for every trainee (resident or SRNA) on the neuroanesthesia service. The new style and the many new chapters/authors make this edition a refreshing and worthwhile contribution. Dr. Newfield and Dr. Cottrell have edited an excellent book."
