Pediatric Surgery, in two volumes, has just been made available to the medical profession. These volumes, made possible by the contributions of 79 qualified authorities in various branches of pediatric surgery, are especially appropriate at this time.
Although there are chapters which deal with anesthesia, genitourinary surgery, neurosurgery, and plastic surgery, the major portion of these two volumes represents what a qualified pediatric surgeon should know. The authors have exercised excellent judgment in holding each chapter to a reasonable length.
