No longer merely a subspecialty, pediatric anesthesia is now a professional entity in its own right, as is amply demonstrated in this comprehensive addition to the medical and surgical literature.

Pediatric Anesthesia: Basic Principles—State of the Art—Future contains the contributions of 220 international experts from all five continents. This is the only textbook of its kind that has such a strong international representation of the very best authorities in the field.
