This Australian book on paediatric anaesthesia is practical, descriptive and exam focused. It gives safe, experience-based how-to approaches to common and rarer paediatric and neonatal conditions. Assuming readers know about adult anaesthesia, it focuses on what is different about children. The key to paediatric anaesthesia is to learn the skills to be confident about managing a child’s airway. Once mastered, you can then start to enjoy working with children and learning the art of managing their anxiety and that of their parents. Written by clinical, full-time paediatric anaesthetists, this is the one book that gives both all the information for specialist exam preparation, and the knowledge of contemporary paediatric anaesthesia that will stand a consultant anaesthetist in good stead.

Here's a definitive reference on pediatric anesthesia. Covers all aspects from psychological preparation for surgery and preoperative medical assessment, through general and regional anesthetic techniques, monitoring, and fluid and electrolyte management, to postoperative care.
