Recenzje

'The design of the book is outstanding with a nice big format. There are many beautiful colour illustrations. Even the boring electroencephalogram (EEG) and CFM tracks are coloured and attractive to look at. … An excellent glossary and list of abbreviations in the beginning of the book are most useful. … the three editors have produced an excellent book.' Acta Pædiatrica
