"The perioperative considerations in this text are the core of what sets it apart from other similarly detailed books about medical disease, and the depth of discussion of medical disease is different from other works on anesthesiology. The book is easy to understand and useful for any anesthesiology practitioner or learner taking care of complex medical patients."
