It reviews basic paediatric cardiovascular principles and satisfies the need for a pocket reference handbook tailored to meet the daily challenges of practitioners caring for paediatric cardiac patients. ... this is a unique handbook of paediatric cardiovascular drugs which is very useful to its intended readership. It has certainly filled a gap in the market as there are no other handbook giving such a useful detailed information about each drug in a format useful for clinicians.
