Good selection of cases:

This book has a good selection of pediatric cases followed by description and discussion.
I recommend this one just like all the others from this collection (Case review).
Just read it when you get some free time to spare.

below average:

The diagnoses are well chosen. Images are not perfect but in most cases good enough to see the pertinent findings. Everything goes downhill from here.
What was most troubling was that the book contains many factual innacuracies (confusing intra/extra lobar sequestration, creutzfeld-jacob virus as the causative factor in PML, I could go on and on. After doing half of the cases, I stopped believing much of what the authors had to say in the discussions.
Many typos which did not bother me. Annoying... more info

Agree with complaints:

If you were wondering, the poor reviews below are accurate. The book is okay, at best for its choice of topics and superficial discussions. However, the discussions have little to do with the images. There is no explanation of the findings. Altogether a terrible job putting this book together. It seems so obvious how to make a good case review book. This isnt it.

worst of the series:

This is without question the worst of the series. Typos, black pearls, text often doesn't refer to the pictures at all. Better than nothing...I suppose, but really substandard. I hope they didn't pay a real editor for this sloppy work.
Not worth waiting for.
