Reviews
Now, in its eighth edition, it is still a pleasure to read chapters that have been updated by eminent authors . Two new chapters (one on chronic pain and one on nutritional diseases: obesity and malnutrition) have been added. Both are highly pertinent, as each represents a major change in the diversity of patients that we encounter in current practice. - Dan Benhamou, (c)2022 British Journal of Anaesthesia
Doody's Core Titles® 2022 ""The perioperative considerations in this text are the core of what sets it apart from other similarly detailed books about medical disease, and the depth of discussion of medical disease is different from other works on anesthesiology.
