It is my personal opinion that Barash does probably the best job at providing content that is relevant and devoid of minutia. All sections contain material that is optimal for reading and assimilation. The text is large, yet it is far from dry. I highly recommend this as "The" backbone text for Anesthesiology! 13 of 13 people found the following review helpful: 4.0 out of 5 stars Good standard text book with some surprising omissions, March 4, 2003 By  mk (Cincinnati OH) - See all my reviews This review is from: Clinical Anesthesia (Hardcover) If you consider buying you might want to add the little "handbook" that goes along with it. This combination works pretty well for review. Overall, most chapters are well written and complete. However, the index is often less than ideal and can make finding a not so outlandish topic like SBE-prophylaxis rather difficult. Should you get this one instead of the big "Miller"? Well, the coverage in Miller is still broader and more complete but at the price of a abundant prose, abundant weight and two volumes. Again, in my view the handbook makes this book more useful. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: 5.0 out of 5 stars As expected, as fine as is and was., June 7, 2009 By  Jinyoung Chon MD "anestha" (Boston, MA, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)    This review is from: Clinical Anesthesia (Clinical Anesthesia (Barash)) (Hardcover) As a well famous known text book for the anesthesiologists, this book was, is and will be one of the gold standard.
