Strong chapters on heart murmurs and cyanosis in newborns help distinguish normal findings from pathology. The section on endocrine disorders presenting in the newborn period is a welcome addition to the reference.

After using several neonatal references, this remains the most practical for primary care settings. The preterm infant nutrition chapter alone justifies the purchase. Clear writing with detailed references throughout.
