Description
Prepared by authors based in the UK, this highly practical, illustrated guide continues to provide an up-to-date introduction to anaesthetic
equipment and its use in clinical practice. An invaluable resource for all those who work with anaesthetic equipment, including anaesthetists

current equipment and training requirements. Lavishly illustrated throughout with colour photos and clearly-drawn line illustrations,

two editions such a success.
