Reviews

...we have long needed...an authoritative text devoted to these areas of practice and now we have it....I am particularly pleased to see whole chapters devoted to preassessment, preoptimization and perioperative fluid management, all crucial areas and ones which are sadly often inadequately considered.... ...I can see this book being a valuable addition to the library of any anaesthetist who regularly works with a gastrointestinal surgeon. Not only that, but it will also be of value to non-medical anaesthetists, theatre practitioners, nurses and even surgeons. I am honoured to have been asked to be a (very small) part of it. -Professor Brian J. Pollard, Professor of Anaesthesia, The University of Manchester, United Kingdom, and Honorary Consultant in Anaesthesia and Critical Care, Central Manchester and Manchester Children's University Hospitals NHS Trust,Manchester, United Kingdom
