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.

Surgeries:
Great book but really bulky. Can't really carry it around with you all the time. I would love to see a mini-version of it in paperback.
Handy Reference:
A handy resource to have on hand, especially if you know what your cases will be, or what speicalty areas you are in.
Not bad, but:
It doesn't describe all the procedures accurately, and sometimes the descrption of the procedures doesn`t change my anesthetic plan. I think it was written from a surgery point of view, rather than the anesthesiologist
Anesthesia Careplan Powerbook:
This is the book where you can get concise information for your anesthesia care plans. Currently there is not a better one out that which summarizes the operation and the anesthetic plan on a couple of pages.
