"Chestnut's Obstetric Anesthesia: Principles and Practice" is truly the definitive textbook of Obstetrical Anesthesiology. It is exceedingly well-written, well-illustrated, and well-organized. Dr. David H. Chestnut, Dr. Cynthia A. Wong, Dr. Lawrence C. Tsen, Dr. Warwick D. Ngan Kee, Dr. Yaakov Beilin, Dr. Jill M. Mhyre, and Dr. Naveen Nathan have collaborated to write an absolutely masterful and authoritative textbook on the care and management of pregnant women and their infants. "Chestnut's Obstetric Anesthesia: Principles and Practice" is one of the best medical textbooks ever written, and it certainly deserves to occupy a prominent position in the personal library of every practicing anesthesiologist, obstetrician, and neonatologist. I enthusiastically give it my very highest recommendation!

Very thorough but very expensive!

This book is good so far. I am only like 3 chapters into it but the material is not too difficult to read.

The bible in OB anesthesia. This is the go to text for any consult or challenging case.

Great
