ResumoIf you intend to write an accessible review covering a specialized area of medicine, this book should be the paradigm. It is the sort of book that is widely sought but seldom found. Fenichel’s survey of child neurology is concise, accurate, provides extensive coverage of the field, and is salted with “pearls of wisdom.” Wouldn’t this be an infinitely better choice for students and residents than most of the paperbound review books and clinical handbooks that are always in their jacket pockets? Perhaps the publisher, WB Saunders, needs to convert this text to the Palm OS so the information can be downloaded into the ever-present Palm Pilots. Senior physicians will also find much to like in this textbook, which offers mini-refreshers on uncommon neurologic disorders combined with snippets of advice from one of the country’s most experienced clinicians.
