Cousins and Bridenbaugh's Neural Blockade

This comprehensive and authoritative text presents the scientific underpinnings and clinical practice of neural blocks in both regional anaesthesia and the management of pain. The descriptions of pain mechanisms and their accompanying illustrations are considered classic examples. The Fourth Edition has been refined for clarity and each section flows logically from 1) principles and pharmacology, to 2) techniques, to 3) applications based on anatomical structure. This edition has two new co-editors and several new chapters including one devoted to complications of pain management.
