Review quotes

"for regular Part One teachers, and those sitting the Part One exam it remains an excellent resource

...this book is the epitome of ‘an encyclopaedia of principles and practice’ for anaesthesia, intensive care and perioperative medicine

Anaesthesia and Intensive Care A-Z is a valuable addition to the literature of our expanding specialty. ...Now in its sixth edition, this moderate-to-large size reference to me, is its best version to date. ...the authors strike an excellent balance between brevity and comprehensiveness. ...In conclusion, for the North American reader who does not mind the British vernacular, quite a few gems and pearls await you within the pages of this book." --Canadian Journal of Anesthesia
