Elsevier

Foundations of Anesthesia: Integrated Basic and Clinical Sciencesemphasises the principles and clinical applications of the four major areas of basic science that are relevant to anaesthesia practice: molecular and cell biology, physiology, pharmacology, and physics and measurement. The approach is integrated and systems oriented, avoiding the artificial boundaries between the basic sciences. Recognising that no single author possesses the breadth and depth of understanding of all relevant subjects, each chapter is authored by an expert in that area. These authorities represent many of the finest institutions of North America and the United Kingdom. This allows an international presentation of current anaesthesia science presented by relevant experts at the cutting edge of anaesthesia research and education.<li>Gives the complete and latest scientific knowledge necessary for anesthetic practice</li>
<li>Presents in one book all that the anesthetist needs for qualifying exams and practice</li>
<li>Internationally renowned team of contributors ensure comprehensive coverage</li>
<li>"The text is visually appealing &amp; extremely easy to use....there are extensive full-color illustrations on almost every page, which greatly aids in understanding the concepts being reviewed. "</li>

Foundations of Anesthesia: Basic and Clinical Science

Better understand the complexities of pharmacology and physiology relevant to your practice with the brand-new medical reference book, Pharmacology and Physiology for Anesthesia. Drs. Hugh Hemmings and Talmage Egan provide the clinical insights you need to effectively administer anesthesia, ensuring patient safety and the most optimal outcomes. "...This is a useful well-written textbook of pharmacology and physiology. There is a greater emphasis on the pharmacology, but both sciences are dealt with to a high standard...I am happy to recommend this book as a useful learning and reference source." Reviewed by:C.S Reilly on behalf of British Journal of Anaesthesia, Feb 2014
