第三版这一著名的文字对小儿神经学已扩大和修订。这本书装订得很好，印刷得很好，插图也复制得很好。这篇课文安排得很有逻辑，写得很流畅。它涵盖了整个复杂领域的神经系统疾病在婴儿期，儿童期和青春期。目录是由一个异常完整的大纲，加上冗长的索引和优秀的参考书目为每一节，使这是一个非常有用和有用的参考书医生和学生。第一章是专门为“检查的神经系统”和第二个“临床方面的解剖学和生理学的神经系统。”第一章的某些章节比必要的要详细一些，而另一些章节则过于粗略。然而，第11章写得非常好，从应用神经解剖学和神经生理学的角度来看，它本身就是一本教科书，应该是每个神经学学生的必读阅读。本书对正常和异常神经系统体征的基础进行了更清晰、更易读的描述，在其他章节中，我们将对广泛的主题进行逻辑性的阐述。涵盖了所有方面。作者的广泛经验使得关于产前和发育缺陷以及遗传家族性和退行性疾病的章节特别好。然而，任何一个人显然不可能在经验上熟悉所有的神经系统疾病。因此，作者依赖于其他人发表的观察结果来讨论许多罕见和不寻常的情况。并不是所有关于治疗的章节都与当前文献的重点一致，例如，急性脊髓灰质炎的石膏固定建议，以及神经梅毒在青霉素之前进行金属化疗的讨论。动脉造影不突出。但这些都是小东西。这本书继续是一个重要的贡献，神经病学，它应该是熟悉的所有领域，即使不关心儿科在实践中。A.

The third edition of this well known text on pediatric neurology has been enlarged and revised. It is well bound, well printed, and the illustrations are nicely reproduced. The text is logically arranged and smoothly written. I t covers the entire complex field of disorders of the nervous system in infancy, childhood and adolescence. The table of contents is made up of an unusually full outline which, added to the lengthy index and excellent bibliographies for each section, makes this a very usable and useful reference book for physicians and students. The first chapter is devoted to “The Examination of the Nervous System” and the second to “Clinical Aspects of the Anatomy and Physiology of the Nervous System.” Some sections of Chapter I are somewhat more detailed than might be necessary and others are too sketchy. Chapter 11, however, is unusually well written and from the point of view of applied neuroanatomy and neurophysiology it is a textbook in itself and should be required reading for every student of neurology. There are few other places, if any, where a more lucid, readable description of the basis of normal and abnormal neurologic signs can be found. In the remaining chapters the extensive subject matter is logically presented. All aspects are covered. The author’s wide experience makes the chapters on prenatal and developmental defects and heredofamilial and degenerative diseases particularly good. However, it is manifestly impossible for any one individual to become familiar in experience with all disorders of the nervous system. Consequently, the author depends on the published observations of others for discussions of many rare and unusual conditions. Not all of the sections on treatment have been brought abreast with the emphasis given in current literature, as for example, the recommendation of plaster immobilization in acute poliomyelitis, and the discussion of metal chemotherapy before penicillin in neurosyphilis. Arteriography is not given prominence. But these are small items. This book continues to be an important contribution to neurology and it should be familiar to all in the field, even though not concerned with pediatrics in practice. A. S. R.
