This book represents the first American text on this subject since Caffey's classic Pediatric Radiology. It should prove useful to those who are interested in this specialty.
Some of the descriptive text is too brief. However, the radiographic reproductions are excellent. Such illustrations are "worth a thousand words." The author glosses over some controversial subjects, e.g., peptic ulcer in children hiatal hernia in infants.
The organization of the text follows a timehonored one, starting with the skull and proceeding through various systems.
