5.0 out of 5 stars Classic Text, May 31, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Care of the High-Risk Neonate, 5e (Klaus, Care of the High-Risk Neonate) (Hardcover)

This is an excellent textbook, period. It provides an excellent balance between scientific background and practical knowledge. Chapters are concise, well-illustrated, and each chapter concludes with a question/anwer discussion format which mimics the conversational style of the best lecturers. Most important, this textbook is readable and of a manageable size which as a second year resident I was able to get through during a one month rotation.

I borrowed the previous edition as a fourth year acting intern. It was excellent. Extremely easy to read, lots of information, but concise for time. A must have...I plan on buying the new edition!
