Reviews
"This book is part of the Neonatology Questions and Controversies series. It takes a mostly physiologic and futuristic look at several of the unanswered questions in neonatal nutrition, especially of the very low birth weight (VLBW) premature infants. For the clinician looking for guidance in everyday management in the NICU, a few chapters are very practical." (c)Doody's Review Service, 2024, Jay P.
