Publisher's Synopsis
Obstetric anaesthesia has become increasingly recognised as a distinct sub-speciality over recent years. This book is a comprehensive, up-to-date treatise which describes the various clinical problems that the anaesthetist can face and outlines the best management practice that can be adopted. Essentially 'European' in flavour, the book examines the effect of differing cultural attitudes to childbirth in the field and stresses the importance of establishing international links. It will be a valuable source of reference for the established clinician and trainee anaesthetist alike.
