Extremely frustrating to read, drones on and on and on.
x,y,and z are greater than a.
y,z, and a are less than b but so and so says that's not so.

Usually a required text for anesthesia school. Good reference. You will probably want to keep this book throughout your professional career.

I'm a 1st year CRNA student - it is the best pharm book I have read (and I have read many). Easy to read and packed full of clinically important information.

I have used this book over the last 9-12 months to study for my part I ANZCA exam. It is frustrating to use at times, often containing contradictory or imprecise statements. It definately contains several errors (including but not limited to the structures of sevoflurane and etidocaine). It is now becomming rather out of date (examiners often expect more up to date information than this). The chapters and sections themselves are well organised, but within paragraphs organisation is often a bit lacking.
Also, the physiology section is not particularly usefull, being too brief to be worthwhile in studying for exams.
Unfortunately I do not know of any other book dedicated to anaesthetic pharmacology that covers the topics in the appropriate amount of detail without being too massive to be managable. So we will still be forced to use it for now. Let's hope a new edition comes out soon that is much improved!!
