Overview

This volume represents a review of recent work presented by eminent scientists at the Second International Symposium on 'Applied Physiology in Critical Care with Emphasis on Children' at Aruba, Netherlands Antilles, November 28 - 2 December, 1983. We are grateful to the keynote speakers who accepted our invitation and completed their chapters in time for the press. I must thank the Government of Aruba, the Tourist Office of Aruba, Mr Frank Croes and Mr Betico Croes for their support and generosity for organizing this symposium.

Reviews

'This book should interest the clinician, whether neonatologist, pediatrician, intensivist or anesthetist, who is involved in the clinical care of infants and children with cardiopulmonary disease. It is an excellent source of up-to-date information which would be difficult to find in standard textbooks. The busy clinician who wishes to keep abreast of a wide field of physiological and clinical information in the field of pulmonary research in infants and its practical applications, will find the book most interesting and stimulating.' Intensive & Critical Care Digest, 5:1 (1986)
