Review

-This is a superb book, and one which is much needed in the field. Standard neurology textbooks give some attention to neonatal issues but not this in-depth discussion of controversial areas. This book is clinically based and well researched and should be part of the library of clinicians caring for critically ill newborns.- – Doody’s 4 Stars ****
