Reviews

'The text is invariably well written and is extremely engaging in style. … I believe that this book will be welcome to researchers and educators in anaesthesia; it represents an extremely thorough and compact drawing-together of the currently available evidence in our specialty and will be a very useful means of rapidly becoming conversant with the evidence base of issues of interest. Medicolegal practitioners will also find the book useful in supporting their assessment of the standard of care and causation.' ESA Newsletter
