  The aim of this series is to span the gap between articles appearing in the journals and their eventual incorporation into the textbooks. Medicine relevant to anaesthesia occupies a prominent role in this volume, including assessment of patients with cardiac disease for operation, care during the course of anaesthesia and also the problems of the pacemaker. Techniques of pain relief with peripheral nerve block and analgesics are considered as well as the multitude of papers on the theories of pain. Monitoring during anaesthesia has medicolegal connotations, especially as essential monitoring has still to be defined. The place of the model on the uptake of inhalational anaesthetic agents has been studied, and no less important is the section on malignant hyperthermia.
