Review:

"This book has no comparison. The authors have done a wonderful job of updating the text and photographs in addition to the new colorful design, which makes this book extremely attractive. It is difficult to imagine the future of dysmorphology without Smith's Recognizable Patterns of Human Malformations."-Luis F. Escobar, MD, MS(St. Vincent Hospital and Health Care Center) Doody Review: 5 stars
