  This is a new edition of a very successful textbook aimed at residents taking the Fellowship examination of the Royal College of Anaesthetists and/or similar type exams. The examination has changed since the current edition was published moving from a three part exam to a two part one, with Part 1 now having a much greater basic science content. The new edition should consolidate the book's position as the dominant text for Part 1 of the FRCA. It is also highly suitable for exams such as the Diploma of Anaesthesiology of the European Academy of Aneaesthesiology.

  This edition is designed for the FCA Part 1 exam and all equivalents around the world. The book covers the whole range of anaesthesia at a depth that a trainee of up to one year's experience might expect to be examined on. The book presents the subject as an integrated development from the basic sciences, incorporating anatomy, physiology and pharmacology of relevance to anaesthetics. The full scope of anaesthetic practice is then covered, including pre-, intra- and post-operative care of the surgical patient. The coverage also extends to an account of intensive care, chronic pain and selected local anaesthetic blocks.
