Rezensionen
`I would urge other anaesthetists...to read it. They will be pleasantly suprised.' -- British Journal of Anaesthesia

`Studies of Narcosis is a valuable and fascinating book, and should be in the library of anyone concerned with the actions of xenobiotics of living organisms.' -- Xenobiotica
