Doody's Review
"This book is a must-have for any practitioner in pediatric care. It thoughtfully approaches the diagnosis and management of pediatric infectious disease. The book is clearly written and easily accessible to providers at all levels of experience. The numerous color pictures, charts, and pathways will help readers understand all aspects of each disease. This book exemplifies the knowledge and experience of Dr. Tan."
-- Poj Lysouvakon, MD (Comer Children's Hospital) Doody's Review - previous edition
"This book is of the highest quality and justifies the replacement of the previous edition. The fast-developing field of infectious diseases requires regular reevaluation, and timely updates of both the AAP Red Book and this companion atlas are crucial. There is simply no other book like it in the field, and it is invaluable to pediatric practitioners."
