Reviews

The target audience for this book is pediatricians, family physicians, and pediatric nurse practitioners. The book would be a great resource for pediatric hematologists who may not focus on benign hematology, but who encounter these patients in their practice. ... A major advantage of this book is the comprehensive nature of the subject matter focused in one volume. This book should be an essential part of a pediatric hematologist's library. (George M Rodgers, Doody's Book Reviews, December 17, 2020)
