Reviews
This very condensed but detailed handbook describes in its 43 chapters the anatomy, pathophysiology and treatment of conditions necessitating intensive medical care in neonates, infants and children... As the editors write this book is not just for intensivists, but should help also paediatric clinicians. * Inbar Kushnir, Editorial Manager; PER Volume 15 no.2 *
