2007 BRITISH MEDICAL ASSOCIATION MEDICAL BOOK AWARDS ANAESTHESIA CATEGORY First Prize -- Syndromes: Rapid Recognition and Perioperative Implications, Bissonnette 'There are many books on congenitally inherited disease. I have not seen one which provides such a useful reference for perioperative management. The information is succinct and easy to find. A huge amount of work has produced an excellent reference book. Every paediatric intensive care unit and operating department should have one! It's real competition for some of the internet sites which cover this kind of thing.'
