Stoelting's Handbook of Pharmacology and Physiology in Anesthetic Practice (Lippincott Williams and Wilkins)

Understanding pharmacology as it applies to the function of anesthesthetic drugs is crucial to learning how to be an anesthesiologist; understanding how physiology interacts with the drugs you are administering is just as important. This handbook follows the chapter headings of its parent textbook. Figures and tables are used extensively to summarize key points and dosages, making the book easy to use in the or. A separate drug index makes looking up individual drugs fast and easy. The handbook sells heavily to anesthesia residents and nurse anesthetists. Bob Stoelting, a legend in anesthesia, will write the handbook and his name will appear in the title. Key features: new chapter on drug delivery systems; new chapter on pharmacogenomics; new coverage of drugs with anesthetic interactions; new coverage of the physiology of resuscitation; comprehensive but succinct coverage of all major topics; and easy to access; many tables and lists to emphasize key points. It is written żeby Bob Stoelting.
