This practical reference is a comprehensive guide to the anesthetic and perioperative management of patients during all procedures performed by general and subspecialist surgeons. The book explains each procedure from the surgeon's and anesthesiologist's perspective, presents details on anesthetic technique, and guides the anesthesiologist through the decisions that must be made before, during, and after surgery. The third edition has outsold its predecessors and has already exceeded LWW's LOE expectations. The Fourth Edition will be the first edition in full color.

I am a anesthesiologist at an academic hospital. It is difficult for our residents to understand all the issues that they will face during the day. I find the ones that prepare (even for just a few minutes) with this book seem much more prepared. If you need a practical guide to anesthesia, this is the book to get.

I used this book extensively as a resident. It does have a "cookbook" format, but serves as an excellent starting point for care of the patient in and out of the OR. This new addition is colorful and is especially helpful because of the on-line access to text and figures. It is nice to have this resource available without needing to carry a heavy text daily. This is a welcome edition.

There was a great deception for me - almost nothing new since previous edition, for example, remifentanyl doesn't existe, no evidence based data for certains anesthetic managements.
if you have a previous edition, it doesn't matter to buy this book
it can be good stuff for a junior anesthesiologist.

This was very helpful in my studies. I used Jaffe to get prepared for my clinical preparation. I would recommend this book to those pursuing a carreer in anesthesia.
