This book was a life saver! I purchased it while pregnant with my son who, at the time we knew, was going to have a cleft lip and possibly a cleft palate. This book was a wealth of information but was extremely easy to read and understand. It really helped put my mind at ease. I highly recommend it for any parents and parents to be of a cleft cutie!
This is a wonderful resource for families embarking or continuing on the cleft journey! As the book notes, it is a family resource....it is based on Dr. Losee's medical journal but adapted for families by families!!! I strongly urge any parent or loved one looking for an all-encompassing resource for cleft-lip and/or platate. There is no other publication of this type in print at this time....it is a must have for families. I only wish I had it 15 months ago when my son's clefts were diagnosised at 28 weeks pregnant.
Used this book as a comprehensive review and gift to overseas medical colleagues. Very helpful. Arrived in excellent condition in a timely manner/
This book is good as an all around book on the subject, but if you are looking for a surgical atlas to take you through the steps of various common or even uncommon operations, pharyngeal flaps, various cleft lip/palate primary and secondary repairs, etc etc... this is not the book to do it... disappointing in that regard for sure. The chapter on anatomy uses "high tech" computer generated "3D" figures which, to be honest, are very weak.
