Reviews
'... I can honestly say that this book is a welcome addition to my list of reference texts. I found it interesting, informative, relevant and clear. A great 'go to book' for an overview of a selected topic within the field of obstetric anaesthesia with a comprehensible flow, that makes some other text books seem as cumbersome as they really can be.' Paul Hawkins, Journal of Perioperative Practice
'Analgesia, Anaesthesia and Pregnancy is an enjoyable read, providing valuable information for advanced trainees and consultant anesthetists encountering complex obstetric patients in their practice. The book contains useful and practical information on core topics in obstetric anesthesia in a clear and concise format.' Marcelo Epsztein Kanczuk, Anesthesia & Analgesia
'This book briefly covers the most commonly encountered conditions and problems in obstetric anesthesia ... The information is sufficient for its intended purpose and training physicians will appreciate the book during their obstetric anesthesia rotation. It is less detailed than most obstetric anesthesia books; its small size and ease of reading will render it useful for when on call. Given the updated reading material, the updated guidelines and recommendations, and the updated expansion of topics, this fourth edition is clearly justified and will be a welcome addition as a quick reference for those who practice obstetric anesthesia.' Rebecca C Myers, Doody's Book Review Service
'... Analgesia, Anaesthesia and Pregnancy - A Practical Guide, Fourth Edition will provide anesthesia trainees (residents/fellows) and experienced obstetrical anesthesiologists relevant, practical advice on a wide range of topics in obstetrical anesthesia. I found it to be a most useful and informative read, and I highly recommend that this text be included in any anesthesia library accessed by those who provide obstetrical anesthesia care.' Vasudha Misra, Canadian Journal of Anesthesia
