Hey Cambie,
Why do you want to unload your Morgan and Mikhail? You're an incoming CA1 right? That book is a total "must have." I happen to own both books and can see why you might want to ditch your baby miller...but why your Morgan??? 😕 😕

Do not be confused. I simply have two copies of Morgans' book. Baby Miller is too dense for my liking. Morgan is a great book. It is easy to read. I actually have three copies of it one is an older edition given to me by a CRNA.
One introductory text and a reference book is enough. VCU has been very generous with books. My library is overflowing.
I have listed the books on Amazon. You will find the prices to be very fair.

Can I unload my parents' cat on Amazon? This thing is driving me nuts. I can sweeten the deal by throwing in the litter box for free.

Sorry to find it more than a little amusing that baby Miller is "too dense" for an anes resident...There is a reason that it is called "baby miller". The real Miller is hardcover 3400 pages. We had to read baby miller as a prereq before admission and then had a crash course of 5 weeks in first summer cover to cover.
M and M is indeed easy to read, our program is phasing it out as it revolves around "cookbook or protocol" anesthesia.

Good for you.
I think everyone on this board is familiar with the "real Miller."
Baby Miller is for board review and for the foray into the field no (sounds paradoxical but its true)? The information laid out can be quite technical to someone with no prior exposure to anesthesiology. As a result one may lose the forest for the trees, as I have at times with that text.
Dense does not equal difficult.
I Agree that M & M is a smoother read as it guides one through a basic understanding of phys, path, and clinical scenerios. However I'm not going to pound through that entire book prior to my initial in service.

Im 3/4 through baby miller cover to cover. There is def no wasted space, just about every sentance is a nugget to remember. Plus i remember a few of the same figures in there showed up on the inservice last year. I think its a good primer but I do plan to slug through M&M next. 1.5 months and counting.
