Reviews
"I read articles, explored websites, perused product information from various hemp oil producers and queried folks on facebook. But thankfully, while reading conflicting reviews of different CBD products on Amazon, I came across this book. The book has just enough scientific and medical info to explain how and why CBD works as medicine; this gave me confidence that hemp oil is not just a fad, placebo or snake oil. While the book would clearly be useful for those in the nursing profession, it is equally important and accessible to the lay reader, and I fear you might lose many potential readers who assume that it's a book written primarily for nurses. Also, I hope that you will decide to offer the book in a print version as well; some folks don't have access to e-readers; and some of us just prefer having a hard to copy to underline and highlight and reference repeatedly; it's just easier in "book" form!"
"After reading this very comprehensive book I have been enormously pleased to share it with many of my friends, especially those who didn't know much about hemp oil."
"This is the second copy I have ordered."
"Well written easy to understand good morning I'll let you get about CBD the better you are to talk about it."
"Nice book...very informative!"
"good information but already knew it...need to recycle this book now."
"Very informative book."
"Most informative and easy to read."

Understanding Anesthesia Equipment (Dorsch, Understanding Anesthesia Equipment)
The "Bible on Anesthesia Equipment" returns in a new Fifth Edition, and once again takes readers step-by-step through all the basic anesthesia equipment.
Reviews
"Dorsch and Dorsch's Understanding Anesthesia Equipment is simply the most thorough book on anesthesia equipment out there that I am aware of. You will find most of the general basics of anesthesia equipment in Barash's Clinical Anesthesia and even more summary books like Stoelting's Basics of Anesthesia) and Morgan & Mikhail's Clinical Anesthesiology. For a book that has been through so many revisions and costs well upward of a hundred bucks, I would expect some color photos and some better constructed color diagrams."
"Much of the charm of earlier editions (I own 1st and 4th) seems to be missing and there seems to be a reliance on manufacturer's supplied illustrations. This book will alow you to be competent to trouble shoot a system while waiting for BME to arrive,or for you to feel confident to swap a machine in the middle of a case."
"this is definitely the book to give you everything you need to understand anaesthesia equipment. its a "stay at home book" tho. big and heavy. the pages are not as easy to read since its all black and white and there's alot of material to read plus the pictures are not as many as i would have liked. but still a very good book. glad i got it for my residency. always on top of my info because of it."
"Fundamental in anesthesiologist library to understand the equipment."
"this is a great reference text for anesthesia AASAT's like myself."
"This book is a good source if you want to understand how the anesthesia equipment developed."
"recommend it for others to buy, especially for certified anesthesia assistants and crtified anesthesia technicians."
