Book Reviews

"This book supports neonatologists in preparing for their subspecialty boards or to refresh their neonatal knowledge. While textbooks, journals, and bedside learning provide the bulk of clinical knowledge for trainees, it is helpful to have material condensed in a single book for board review. A comprehensive review book is essential to allow for focused and directed board review. The companion ebook aids in transportability and ease of navigation but does not significantly enhance the content available in print. This book meets its objectives by providing a comprehensive board-focused review based on the American Board of Pediatrics Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine Content Outline." ©Doody’s Review Service, 2024, Maradith L Skalak, MD (Tulane University School of Medicine)
