Reviews

“This atlas is devoted solely to illustrations of cardiac operations on infants. … The drawings are superb, well delineated and detailed, with brief text provided by the two authors, both well-known pediatric cardiac surgeons. … Overall, this is a nice, new atlas of pediatric cardiac surgery, six years in the making. Kudos to the artist for the wonderful drawings.” (Robert M. Arensman, Doody’s Book Reviews, July, 2016)
