Industry Reviews

This book starts with a useful and informative introduction to telemedicine and the definition of telepaediatrics. An initial glossary demystifies some of the technological jargon surrounding information technology and this illumination aids the reader to understand what follows. A book of this nature provides an interesting insight into how innovative ways of using technology can be applied in healthcare.

... anyone with an interest in telemedicine will find the book useful because of it's relevance to other clinical areas [and] will find this book an invaluable source of ideas and practical experience, much of which will translate into the local environment.
The British Journal of Healthcare Computing & Information Management, April 2005

The description of the wide range of uses for telemedicine is the book's best feature.... The book will succeed in providing ideas to those who are planning healthcare delivery systems for children.
