Anaesthesia. 1977 Oct;32(9):898-903.
The year 1947 was a year of consolidation for the specialty of anaesthesia in Britain. The medical profession in the United Kingdom was poised between the old order of the voluntary hospitals and the new order of the National Health Service. Anaesthetists had gained a new status as a result of their wartime service and the occasional anaesthetist was about to be replaced by the full time specialist consulants. Volume 2 of Anaesthesia reflects this change. It reviews the past, both political and scientific and looks forward to the future with anticipation tinged with some apprehension.
