It has been enormously satisfying to prepare the third edition of Anesthetic and Obstetric Management of High-Risk Pregnancy because it fulfills the need for close communication between two specialties, anesthesiology and obstetrics.

New developments in obstetrics and in obstetric anesthesia necessitated this third edition. Most of the contributors to this edition are new, and they have provided information on the latest approaches, as well as updated information. In addition, Chapter 13, “Critical Care Anesthesia for High-Risk Parturients,” is completely new. Like earlier edi...
Fifty years after being widowed with three small children, Linda finds the answers she's been searching for. The tragic loss of her Navy husband, Bud, to a glioblastoma brain tumor while in his early thirties was unfathomable. The young couple met in college and had a fairy tale romance and what appeared to be a perfect life was unfolding until a sudden onset of symptoms and a diagnosis that seemed unreal for a vital young man. How could Bud who was otherwise so healthy suddenly have such a sinister and deadly cancer? This didn't make sense until a rainy February day in 2020 where a Military-Veterans Advocacy Conference revealed evidence that would forever change her life. Linda goes on a forty-one-year quest to find the reason for her sailor's death. Only to be shocked by the answer.
