Abstract

By R. V. PLATOU Department of Pediatrics, The Tulane University of Louisiana School of Medicine, New Orleans, Louisiana Following the pattern of previous reviews, this one was not intended to be comprehensive, but rather selective; contributions to knowledge affecting the health of children are too numerous for completely adequate exploita­ tion in these few pages. Notes made at several current medical meetings have permitted brief mention of some items that have not yet been pub­ lished at this writing.1 Following a pattern set by previous authors, this writer has happily received helpful suggestions from many members of his staff.2 In the pattern of producing this volume, there must necessarily appear some repetitions; opposing, or at leas t controversial, comments concerning cri tical reviews dealing with work of concern to several specialities, and interpretations varying with current interests of the several authors.
