REVIEWS
The book, Cardiac Emergencies in Children, is edited by Drs Sarnaik, Ross, Lipshultz, and Walters, all of whom are respected authorities in pediatric critical care. The background of the authors includes cardiology, intensive care, and cardiac surgery… Cardiac Emergencies in Children, is better suited for the general pediatrician, family physician, or emergency doctor, and its format is not practical for the practicing anesthesiologist.
