Summary

Sumner & Hatch's Pediatric Anaesthesia is a thorough revision and update of the extremely popular Pediatric Anaesthesia by Sumner and Hatch. A new editor team has carefully revised the text and developed it into a concise textbook that provides all the information that a trainee or practicing pediatric anaesthesist should know. Thoroughly comprehensive, yet concise and manageable in size, this book is entirely practical and relevant, presenting all the newest information on the conditions and potential problems seen in everyday practice. Each chapter has been carefully revisited by existing and new contributors from a global community of experts and the result is an invaluable reference work that will be a continual source of information for any pediatric anaesthetist.
