I read the new edition and it will definitely help me with my initial newborn examinations on their arrival to the NICU. Especially helpful were the pictures that correlated with the Braden Scale so that I could actually SEE the differences in positions according to gestational age. I would certainly recommend this book to anyone in the neonatal field!

This is a very thorough textbook on newborn exams. I learned really a lot from reading it cover to cover.
