"As a preoperative/intraoperative/postoperative journey, the book is a nice overview for anesthesia providers and a reminder that our impact on patient outcomes is not just in the operating room, but also beyond it. It is much more in-depth on many topics than I anticipated and makes many references to studies and current research."
