Number three in a trilogy of books aimed at the large trainee market in Anaesthesia. Like its companion volumes, Part 1 FRCAnaes provides not only MCQs and discursive answers, but includes references to each question and answer from standard textbooks. The reader can satisfy himself or herself on the validity of the answer and - if necessary - read up on a particular topic. The questions have been carefully designed to mimic those from exam papers. They reflect closely the format and style of the questions used in the exam and are arranged in 5 blocks of 60 to mirror the examination structure.
