This text, part of the "Common Problems" series, aims to discuss various issues through a selection of case studies and suggested techniques of management. It covers aspiration, epidural anaesthesia, local anaesthetics, caesarean section, foetal distress, and respiratory, neurological and cardiac problems. Each case is presented and an expert in the field responds to the challenge of the specific situation. Certain complex and controversial subjects have more than one expert opinion listed. A select bibliography follows each chapter, and line drawings, photographs, charts and tables aid the book's value as a practical reference work.
