This book was not optional for me, but the information is good. I wish it could have been compressed some. Goes into pathophysiology, I already have a book for that. Easier to read than some other anesthesia books
Great Book!

This book is a great book for those beginning their studies in anesthesia. This book provides accurate straightforward information that is not quite written at the "over your head" level as some of the "bibles" in anesthesia are. I personally like this book and use it is one of my top resources. For more elaborate explanations I usually go to Miller. But for quick answers that provide a good deal of detail I like this book.
Great book

Nurse Anesthesia is a wonderful book. I think every nurse anesthesia student should review it. Concepts are clearly explained.
