"The distinguished authors of this latest edition build on these foundations, which now include new chapters on teaching CRM and the vitally important skill of debriefing colleagues after they have experienced such challenging events. The catalogue of critical incidents has been completely overhauled and updated, to reflect contemporary practice with nearly 20 new scenarios added". Reviewed by British Journal of Anaesthesia, Jun 2015 "Those preparing for examinations, including maintenance of certification, or those preparing others for these exams will find this book to be an excellent resource." Reviewed by Jane Torrie, Oct 2015 “This is a tremendous book with the single focus of improving patient safety in the fluid situation of anesthesia administration. Every residency program has a curriculum to deal with predictable situations, but not necessarily with unpredictable situations. Other books on similar topics stress medical knowledge to improve the safety of patients, but this is the only one that highlights the importance of the development of cognitive and behavioral skills that are important for averting disaster in crisis situations. This is a must read for safe and better care of patients under anesthesia.” -Tariq M. Malik, MD (University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine) Doody's Score: 100 - 5 Stars! "Who should buy this book? The authors state in the Preface that they wrote it for everyone who administers anesthesia, from trainees to experienced practitioners. I have to say that I enthusiastically agree!" -Manuel Pardo, Jr., M.D., University of California (Anesthesiology 2016; 124:738-40)
