5Preface
The Manual of Anaesthesia is intended to provide a convenient, concise, readable and rapid source of information relevant to anaesthesiology. The book uses a point-wise format for easy reading and better understanding of the text.
The subject matter is discussed in some details and made interesting as well as practicable to grasp the fundamentals of clinical anaesthesia. On the whole, the text will serve as primer and the students, trainee and practitioners will find it suitable.
I wish to thank Mrs Kanyakumari Paul and Sushmita Paul for their cooperation and support in the preparation of this book.
I am also indebted to Shri Jitendar P Vij, (Chairman and Managing Director) and Mr Tarun Duneja (Director-Publishing) of Jaypee Brothers Medical Publishers (P) Ltd, New Delhi who offered the concept of the book with enthusiasm and published the volume.
