    • Provides clear, comprehensive coverage of neonatal neurology in Dr. Joseph Volpe’s own legendary, readable manner—for a masterful, cohesive source of answers to any question that arises in your practice.
    • Brings the latest science into the clinical setting, with an emphasis on translating new knowledge to the infant’s bedside.
    • Offers comprehensive updates with summary tables and text to reflect major advances in the study of hemorrhage; new insights into molecular genetics and molecular characterization of brain tumors; significant advances in drugs and the developing nervous system; and much more.
    • Includes new chapters on fetal neurology which address the importance of understanding and investigating the maternal-fetal origins of neonatal disease, as well as new chapters on neurodevelopmental follow-up, inflammation, and neurology in low-resource settings.
    • Contains more than 1,000 illustrations: clinical and pathological specimens, key experimental findings, schematics, algorithms, anatomical drawings, and neuroimaging throughout, as well as numerous tables and boxes that synthesize key points.
    • An eBook version is included with purchase. The eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references, with the ability to search, customize your content, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud. Any additional digital ancillary content may publish up to 6 weeks following the publication date.
