For Non-U/S blocks:
Peripheral Nerve Blocks: Principles and Practice by Hadzic.
Great book. Really THE book for your regional month as far as I'm concerned. Only thing it lacks is the Supraclavicular block. Which is the money block. Learn it the old fashioned way "see one, do one, teach one."
For U/S blocks:
Perioperative Diagnostic and Interventional Ultrasound with DVD by Elsevier.
Not the greatest book (could use more anatomy), the DVD makes it worth it. Will give you the basics for the PNB's and has some other crap in it about echo's and access.

This book is a classic and you might not find a new copy but it has a wealth of information and practical techniques before nerve stimulators and ultrasound.
It's worth reading.

This website is the shizznit. Except for the most basic of blocks, I usually take a gander at it before I do one just for a quick synopsis of anatomy and to watch their quicktime movie about positioning and such. My program doesn't do enough regional anesthesia, so it's a big-time help.

Has anyone been to the NYSORA website recently? What happened to the old format with the info about all the blocks?

They must have changed this past week. It looks like when the site will be finished you will need to register to get access to the old stuff.

It's interesting how obsolete texts are becoming in the age of the interwebs. Great sites like the former nysora, neuraxiom, the dartmouth site and simple flash videos and animations make those text things almost a thing of the past, especially in an up and coming field like regional.
Now someone get on the ball and make an iphone optimized regional site. I'd even pay a subscription fee if it were good.

One of the anesthesiologists I rotated with liked "Atlas of Regional Anesthesia" by David L. Brown.
