It is succinct and concise without dumbing down the subject.... The fundamentals of traditional subjects are adhered to, whereas recent or recently resurrected modalities are expanded on. The equipment overview is concise. Often a daunting subject in specialized texts, this topic is crystallized into information relevant to the immediate needs of users. The whys and wherefores of judicious monitoring and support are emphasized, and the pros, cons, and vagaries of different monitoring modalities and support variables are discussed. Ventilation, an important aspect of anesthesia that is too often left to chance in clinical practice, is demystified. The chapter on preoperative preparation expands on a subject that is too often glossed over but is as critical to outcome as is the surgical procedure itself. The use of agents for perioperative sedation, analgesia, and anesthesia is thoroughly discussed, allowing users to make an informed decision regarding the choice of options available for a heterogeneous patient population.\" (\u003ci\u003eJournal of the American Veterinary Medical Association,\u003c\/i\u003e December 2008)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"A top pick for any vet library or college-level collection.
