Many of us have been to a hospital either as a patient or a visitor, but what we see is only a tiny part of the building. This book shows what happens behind the scene in a modern general hospital. The fold-out section reveals the whole building in minute detail, inside and out, showing its many departments, the people who work in them and the equipment they use.

From School Library Journal:
Grade 4-6-An introduction to a modern hospital from the high-profile operating room to the support services of the basement laundry. A gatefold illustration offers a cutaway picture of a three-story building, color coded and numbered with corresponding informative captions. The concise two-page chapters that follow explain what happens in the different areas of the building-the personnel, the equipment, and the patients. One section presents a time line of hospital history. The many color and line drawings provide additional information. James Howe's The Hospital Book (Morrow, 1994) concentrates on the patient's experience. Like that book, Malam's title will help prepare children for a hospital stay. It will also be useful as assignment support.
