Critics Review
This is a high-quality book with great utility for anyproviders managing pediatric trauma. Compared to other books of a similargenre, this one stands out for its inclusion of commonly overlooked aspectsof trauma, such as global health crises, foster care and juvenile detention,and upcoming technology facilitated interventions. It encourages a bigpicture approach, making it appealing to multiple disciplines, andhighlighting the need for integrated care. Because it is inclusive of somany treatment modalities, the only downfall is that certain chapters, likepharmacology, may lack the depth necessary for some providers. However, itshould be noted that each chapter lists suggested readings, making it veryeasy to find these additional resources, if one is seeking them.
