Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - edition is old I'm a little disappointed how old the edition is. Apparently in Oct. 2009 a new edition is coming out. The picture that is shown on Amazon is NOT for the old edition so it is misleading. If I had seen the picture of the book I actually received I would have realized it is an edition I had already used years and years ago. Rating: - Worth the money This book does an excellent job of testing all relevant concepts. Some of the questions are artificially difficult and a little on the difficult side, but if you learn the answers your boards will be a success. I just finished the book for the second time and noticed a marked difference in my ability to remember the concepts that i had seen before. i definitely recommend this question book. Rating: - Awesome Review Book It's just as good as learning from the authors in person. Comprehensive with nice discussion of answers, sectioned by system, and a good format to review topipcs. Rating: - 2 Thumbs up I had the pleasure of working with Brian Hall for a couple of years and he is a fantastic educator and is always quizzing himself and others to keep everybody sharp. I used this book for my written board review and found it to be very helpful. The residents nearly universally used this review at the Mayo Clinic and seemed to feel that it was of substantial help in their preparation. Rating: - great book This is a great review book, it got me 100% on my first anesthesia test!!! see more
