Book Reviews

"The Virginia Apgar Award represents the highest honor that our Section bestows to an individual whose cumulative career accomplishments have had a profound and continuing influence on the well-being of neonates. Richard Polin is the 2021 Virginia Apgar Award recipient, honoring a remarkable career in the field of Neonatology spanning over 40 years.¿ - AAP Section on Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine, Summer 2021

"This is a unique reference and a "must have" for any neonatal caregiver. There are no comparable books that are this comprehensive and describe the physiology and pathophysiology of neonatal disease in such detail. The insight on genetics and future directions of this field of medicine are harbingers of how we will be practicing in the future." ©Doody’s Review Service, 2022, Jay P. Goldsmith, MD (Tulane University School of Medicine) Doody's Score: 5 Stars!
