Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 19-OCT-05, Volume 294, Issue 15, Bhagya L. Puppala, MD, Advocate Lutheran General Children's Hospital, Park Ridge, IL -- This text provides a most comprehensive and excellent review of the issues and concepts central to the practice of neonatology. The editors have succeeded in maintaining uniform style and flow, and the writing is clear and concise. This textbook will continue to be the leading reference on the critical care of the newborn. I highly recommend it to anyone involved with the care of newborns and to fellows preparing for neonatology board examinations. -Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA)
