"A user-friendly and instructive resource that is sure to be
of great value to many physicians. Even the greenest medical
student wades comfortably into the depths of the text and feels
empowered by the visual feast that awaits. Medical illustrator
Michael Courtney provides an abundance of impeccably detailed
drawings, the quality of which is central to the text and helps set
it apart from others in the field. Excellent integration of the
figures into the text, which, coupled with the appropriate
weighting of outcome measures and analyses of results, makes the
text feel manageable. The editors ... expertly maintain a
balance between the extremes of encyclopedic esoteric and
minimalist manuals to produce a text that will prove a cherished
resource on the desk of nearly every pediatric cardiac
surgeon." (Yale Journal of Biology and Medicine,
December 2008)
