Basics of Anesthesia was first published in 1984 with the
editorial leadership of Robert K. Stoelting and Ronald
D. Miller. Their goal was to provide a concise source
of information for the entire community of anesthesia
learners, including students, residents, fellows, and other
trainees. This eighth edition—the first without Dr. Miller
as an editor—continues the pursuit of that goal while
acknowledging how the specialty has evolved. The total
number of chapters (49) is two fewer than the prior
edition. Separate chapters on topics such as congenital
heart disease and awareness were removed, but these
subjects are now covered in other chapters. New chapters
focus on clinician well-being, point-of-care ultrasound,
perioperative medicine, and the environmental impact of
anesthetics. The title “basics” belies the fact that chapters
have more references than prior editions, consistent with
the growth in knowledge and scholarly publications in
the field.
This eighth edition is the first to be called Miller's
Basics of Anesthesia, in recognition of Dr. Miller's leadership
of the book throughout his career. It was an honor to
collaborate with Dr. Miller on the sixth and seventh editions
of this book, and I look forward to the challenge of
maintaining its excellence as a learning resource.
I am thankful to the authors who contributed to this
edition—an international group that includes over 35
new authors. My experience with the pandemic has only
increased the gratitude I feel for all who contributed despite
the impact on our personal and professional lives. Finally,
I would like to acknowledge our publisher, Elsevier, and
the dedication of their staff, including publisher Sarah
Barth, senior content strategist Kayla Wolfe, senior content
development specialist Ann Ruzycka Anderson, and senior
project manager Beula Christopher—I appreciated our many
Zoom calls to keep the book on track for publication.
