This comprehensive survey of fetal and neonatal brain injury discusses a broad range of areas from epidemiology and pathogenesis, to clinical manifestations and obstetric care, and on to diagnosis, long-term outcomes, and medico-legal aspects. This latest edition highlights scientific and clinical advances that have played a role in minimizing risk, improving clinical care and outcomes. It describes how placental abnormalities, imaging studies, and laboratory measurements can identify the timing and severity of the injury.
