Product Description
Established since 1968 as a classic pediatric cardiology text, this two-volume work is now in its Seventh Edition. Leading international experts describe state-of-the-art diagnostic and interventional techniques for young patients with congenital and acquired heart diseases and for adult survivors of congenital heart disease. This edition's section on pediatric cardiac intensive care has new chapters on interventricular and cardiopulmonary interactions and on the extreme premature, premature, and normal newborn. A section From the Gene to the Neonate provides in-depth coverage of genetics, fetal echocardiography, and fetal cardiology. An extensive section focuses on adult survivors of congenital heart disease. A companion Website will include the fully searchable online text.
Reader ReviewsThis book is fabulous and is the defacto bible of pediatric cardiology. Do NOT buy this book from Amazon.com as they will screw up your order and only ship you the 1st volume and not the 2nd. I am not the only person this has happened to. The customer service agents trying to fix this problem made it even worse initially by sending a 2nd copy of the 1st volume, then I had to return both copies for a refund. 3 weeks later, still no book at all! Bottom line, buy this book, but buy it elsewhere!
