Connolly * Journal of History of Medicine and Allied Sciences, Online June 13 2017 * ‘Wright’s history combines splendid scholarship with compelling readability and wise judgement. SickKids becomes difficult to put down, which is highest praise I can give for an institutional history.’ -- Michael Bliss * Canadian Historical Review vol 98:02:2017 * ‘Enlivened by aptly selected illustrations and lucid prose, SickKids is an outstanding contribution to medical history in Canada.’ -- Karen Walloch * Isis vol 108:04:2017 * ‘David Wright’s excellent history…provides the first comprehensive account of [Sickkids] hospital since its founding over 140 years ago…[This] book is highly recommended to historians interested in hospital, childcare, and pediatric medical/surgical history, and to the general interested reader.’ -- Judith Young * Historical Studies in Education Review Vol 30:1:2018 *
