Principls of Physiology for the Anaesthetist is designed and written specifically with the trainee anaesthetist in mind. Ian Power and Peter Kam, anaesthetists with extensive experience of teaching physiology, have written this book to improve understanding of the fundamentals of human physiology in relation to the work of the anaesthetist.



Diagrams are used throughout to support the text and to aid understanding of difficult concepts. In addition to the physiology of all major organ systems, there are special sections on the physiology of pain, the physiology of ageing and physiological effects of specific environments.



Principles of Physiology for the Anaesthetist is an invaluable reference throughout anaesthetic training and beyond, and a useful revision aid.
