Neonatal and Pediatric Respiratory Care

Arrived quickly, just as described

Needed for Neo/Peds class in respiratory school. Book arrived in great condition.

Good book lots of good info

Not super enjoyable read. Can provide some information needed but not concise or keep related information close together.

Don’t get me wrong, Mr. Walsh is an accomplished medical professional, one might say a heavyweight in the field. The information is well researched. Unfortunately this book suffers from a lot of awful sentence structures, repeated sentences, and contradicting statements. I spend a large amount of time reading it looking up clarifications. For example, in the section on tuberculosis, in one paragraph it’s stated the bacterium is resilient to sunlight, then in the next paragraph states it’s rapidly killed by UV rays in the open air. Yeah, I figured out what was meant, but this is an example of where the information is lacking crucial details. Yet in other portions of the book, the author goes into excruciating (and fascinating) detail. Honestly I blame the editor. It should also be noted I have no alternative text to offer, so take my complaints with a grain of salt.
