Previous editions have firmly established this book's reputation as the world's most comprehensive and informative work. To ensure the clinical relevance of the new edition, the editors have painstakingly scrutinized and revised the fourth edition to accurately reflect the vastly increased knowledge and broader responsibility expected of today's practitioner. Reviews of third editionE We unhesitatingly recommend it:"The New England Journal or Medicine "The purchaser gets a lot of book for the moneyE"Anesthesia and Analgesia "If I were faced with the prospect of purchase of one title to use for reference and studyEI would choose this one over any other similar compendium of information about anaesthesia." Anaesthesia"

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Miller's Anesthesia is without a doubt a complete and thorough reference of current knowledge in the field of anesthesia. Its strenght lies in its use of a wide range of recognized authors, contributors, and consulting editors, as well as a plethora of scientific information and extremely well-referenced chapters. Miller's Anesthesia is a reference text that every clinician should own or, at the very least, have access to. There are other reference books that provide quick summaries of various topics, but they should not be a replacement for such an in-depth and complete text as Miller's Anesthesia.

This review is from: Miller's Anesthesia Sixth Edition Volume 1 (Hardcover)

An excellent book. However, it is very heavy and cumbersome to read. Since it has become the encyclopedia of anesthesia, I would prefer if it were available in several smaller books. Also, the print is not as easy to read as in older editions.

5.0 out of 5 stars I read last edition in my residency course., June 15, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Anesthesia (2 Volume Set with CD-ROM for Windows & Macintosh) (Hardcover)

I think this is one of most complete text books and refferences in anesthesia. It may be the refference of every anesthesiology teaching center. In our center (Tehran university ) this book is mainstay of our curriculum.
