Clinical Anesthesia 8th Edition – Paul G. Barash

Clinical Anesthesia 8th Edition

Innovative use of audiovisual resources is the hallmark of the Clinical Anesthesia series. Integration of diverse educational materials into the fabric of each chapter serves to enrich the reader’s experience and has been a part of the series since the second edition of Clinical Anesthesia in 1995, in which the editors introduced the Lippincott Raven Interactive Library on CD-ROM.
Using the textbook as the keystone publication, other relevant books were added to the library, which facilitated cross-referencing topics from Clinical Anesthesia. This CD was awarded the prestigious International Folio Infobase Industry Award for the Best Science, Technology, Medicine CD-ROM.
With the fourth edition of Clinical Anesthesia in 2002, we introduced the first anesthesia software designed specifically for personal digital assistants (Palm Pilot PDA), and in conjunction with the sixth edition in 2009, we introduced another first in anesthesia textbooks: the podcast.
In 2013, we published the seventh edition of Clinical Anesthesia with the most robust electronic platform to date. Previously, the digital versions of textbooks were merely reproductions of the printed page, not formatted to be read on a mobile device, which resulted in a suboptimal reader experience.
Now, powered by the VitalSource platform, the textbook is available in eBook format optimized for all major handheld and desktop devices (tablet, smartphone, and Mac/PC) and includes nearly 2,000 pages of high-fidelity text, images, animated videos, and hyperlinked references. The platform allows the reader to search text by keyword as well as to make notes in the same fashion as one would with a traditional printed textbook.
