"This is a comprehensive, clinically relevant resource for providers involved in the evaluation and care of children who are seen for suspected child abuse or neglect. ...The audience includes students, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, residents, fellows, and practitioners. ... This is an excellent resource for providers at every level who are evaluating children for potential child abuse and neglect. The approach is excellent, the objectives are met, and I can recommend this book without hesitation." (Joseph Hageman, Doody's Book Reviews, May, 2018)
