If you only need the buying answer, the sampled hardcover is a strong ownership choice in the current market. It is priced essentially at the used-book level while staying well below the broader new-hardcover market and far below the lifetime eTextbook, which is exactly what you want to see in a procedural reference.

The important comparison here is not just print versus digital. It is new print versus every other ownership route. The current hardcover is effectively priced at the used level and far below the rest of the market, which makes it unusually easy to justify for a book that functions more like a procedural manual than a disposable text.
What this book actually teaches
Hadzic’s Peripheral Nerve Blocks and Anatomy for Ultrasound-Guided Regional Anesthesia teaches anatomy, ultrasound image interpretation, block planning, spread patterns, complications, and the procedural reasoning needed for regional anesthesia. Books like this are used as working references. Trainees return to them to review landmarks, sonoanatomy, technique sequence, and troubleshooting points, often after the first reading phase is over.
That repeat procedural value is why ownership matters here. A short-term digital workflow may still fit a reader who works entirely on screen and has no reason to keep the title. But once the goal is repeated review during anesthesia, pain, or nurse-anesthesia training, the current hardcover price is unusually favorable.
Who should buy print and who should not
Buy the hardcover if you want a keepable regional-anesthesia reference for repeated procedural review. Pause only if you know you will use the title very briefly and prefer living entirely inside digital tools. For most trainees who want ownership, the current hardcover is the better market route.
