Anatomy for Anaesthetists(8e)

This book has been written to help candidates sitting their professional
examination in anaesthesia in order that they may have at their disposal the
detailed anatomical knowledge necessary for the day to day practice of
anaesthesia. Unlike a textbook of anatomy, which must cover all parts of the
body with equally exhaustive thoroughness, this book concentrates particularly
on areas of special relevance to anaesthesia and points out features of
practical importance to anaesthetic technique. The text is divided into nine
sections; the respiratory pathway, the heart, the vertebral canal, the
peripheral nerves; The Autonomic Nervous System; The Cranial Nerves; The Orbit
and its contents; The Anatomy of Pain and Zones of Anaesthetic Interest. The
eighth edition has fully expanded and updated text; and includes new and
improved illustrations.
