%X This book is aimed primarily at the clinician and more at the infectious disease specialist than the general paediatrician. It is an excellent reference work, with the chapters each dealing with specific clinical contexts (e.g. the renal transplant patient, asplenia, burns patients). There are some surprising inclusions, such as premature infants, and some surprising omissions, most notably bone marrow transplant patients, whereas stem cell transplant patients merit a chapter; a real sign of the times.
