For those who are interested in the advancement of pediatric surgery, it has long been obvious that improvements should be made in anesthesia for infants and children. Much credit should go to Drs. Leigh and Beltom for their important efforts in this direction. The present volume is based on an extensive experience with anesthesia technics in young subjects and hence bears a mark of authority. The book is a good source of reference data for those who are called upon to work in this field.
