"This monograph is based on the author's PhD thesis defended in 2004 and more than a dozen original papers she wrote on the subject of sudden unexplained death in infants. . This book is written for forensic and autopsy pathologists, neonatologists and other pediatricians, gynecologists, and public health workers. The secondary audience includes laboratory histotechnicians, pediatric nurses, medical students, and general medical practitioners . . will be of interest to forensic and pediatric pathologists and all other medical and nonmedical professionals who deal with SIDS." (Ivan Damjanov, Doody's Review Service, January, 2008)
"This concise monograph is an overview of the multiple hypotheses and confirmatory pathological findings contributing to the multifactorial causes of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). The book . is nicely organized into logical sections on the basis of the differential potential mechanisms of SIDS/crib death. . the histopathological illustrations are beautiful and are the main strengths of this book. . This book should be a valuable addition to the libraries of those interested in reviewing the heterogeneous pathophysiology of crib death." (Charles I. Berul, Circulation, Vol. 117, 2008)
"The book details the anatomy, physiology, pathology, and autopsy dissection techniques of the cardiac conducting system and the autonomic nervous system. . Readers of JAMA who have to deal with such fatalities, especially pediatricians and pediatric (and forensic) pathologists, should add Ottaviani's book . ." (Syed A. Hoda and Brian D. Robinson, JAMA, Vol. 299 (9), 2008)
