“Anesthesia and Neurotoxicity – a unique synthesis of basic science and clinical research – is concerned with the neurotoxic effects of anesthetic drugs. It is a concise, up-to-date review of the literature and could be a useful reference for anesthesia care providers who may have to allay their patients’ concerns about the potential harmful effects of general anesthesia.” (O. Predescu, Canadian Journal of Anesthesia/Journal canadien d'anesthésie, Vol. 65 (10), October, 2018)“This book covers a wide range of anesthesia and neurotoxicity topics: from developmental neurotoxicity to POD and POCD, from animal studies to clinical evidence, from diagnosis of neurotoxicity to prevention and treatment approaches, and from symptoms to the underlying mechanisms.” (Xiaowen Bai, Anesthesia & Analgesia, Vol. 127 (2), August, 2018)
