Description
Here's the book that Anesthesiology called "a valuable reference irrespective of level of training or experience." This beautifully illustrated,
full-color text offers more in-depth coverage of pharmacology and physiology, especially at the molecular level. This resource is perfect
for board preparation, recertification, or for use by clinicians wanting to enhance their understanding of the mechanisms of drug action
and find a framework from which they can approach the use of new drugs in practice.
