Edited by George A. Mashour University of Michigan School of Medicine

In many cases per year in the United States alone, patients recall the events of surgery. Awareness during general anesthesia is a complication feared by both patients and clinicians alike.

This complication reflects our inability to distinguish between consciousness and unconsciousness in a patient who is pharmacologically paralyzed. This book addresses the clinical aspects of awareness, the underlying brain science of consciousness, and the philosophical implications of both. ‘… the book is understandable and enjoyable to read, with concise chapters and clear subchapters.

The layout is clear and elegant … comprehensive and comprehensible … It provides a fascinating insight into this relatively poorly understood aspect of our day-to-day practice, and we recommend it to all practising anaesthetists.’
