Reviews
From the book reviews: This is essentially an attempt at a handbook of pediatric surgery with very brief, outline format presentations of the standard, known and proven, information about the basic problems that require surgery in children. ... a book to support the effort of emergency personnel, nurses, and physicians with less familiarity with children and their special surgical considerations. ... it is a pleasant addition to anyone's library of pediatric surgery books. (Robert M. Arensman, Doody's Book Reviews, August, 2014)
