Description
This new, multi-contributed book is a comprehensive yet highly practical guide to pharmacology, with emphasis on its clinical application
in anesthesia. As well as the traditional core information on drugs available to the anesthetist, it covers the implications of physiology/pathophysiology
status of patients on the response to anesthetic intervention. Readability and user-friendliness are ensured throughout, with chapters
structured according to a standard template and the use of original 2-color figures.
