5.0 out of 5 stars A "must read" for anyone interested in anesthesia!, June 24, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Watchful Care: A History of Americas Nurse Anesthetists (Hardcover)
One of the most effective ways to devalue a profession, or any group for that matter, is to ignore their history. Anesthesia texts written for primarily a physician audience have for decades systematically avoided mention of the considerable contributions made to the specialty of anesthesia by Nurse Anesthetists. This book tackles, and successfully masters the task of tracing the development of anesthesia as a nursing specialty from the 19th century to the 1980's. The author also chronicles the multiple, albeit unsuccessful, attempts of organized medicine to stifle the development CRNA's, the profession that has been providing the majority of anesthesia care to Americans for over a century. The book is a "must read" for anyone, nurse, physician or patient, who has an interest in the subject of anesthesia. It is worth the search to find the "out of print" work. Hopefullly, it will be reprinted!

Great seller. Item was as described. The only negative is they don't give you a tracking number on your items.
