This review is from: Diagnosis and Management of Neonatal Seizures (Hardcover)

This book clearly and succintly covers a complex and controversial subject in neonatal neurology. The authors are authorities on the subject. They offer much credibility on theme at hand. The book is well written and contemporary. Management strategies for neonatal seizures are useful and well presented. The illustrative examples are clear to the subject being presented. I recommend this book without reservation to anyone involved in the diagnosis and management of neonates with seizures.
