2015 BMA Medical Book Awards: Highly Commended in Paediatrics
"In the third edition of this textbook (previously edited by Solomon and Esterly) the editors, Eichenfield, Frieden, Mathes and Zaenglein, have expanded its scope to include skin disorders arising in the neonatal period and infancy. The wonderful aspects of the prior editions have been preserved or improved upon. The text is clearly written and enhanced by the many color photographs of dermatologic disorders. Whenever possible there is a renewed effort to include evidence-based recommendations...Neonatal and Infant Dermatology is far more than an atlas. It is a state-of-the-art presentation of the diagnosis and management of skin disorders, and a road map for future interventions to enhance the well-being of the newborn infant."
Foreword by: Richard A. Polin, Feb 2015
