Rezensionen

This is a very in-depth book that takes us back to the origin of Christian Doppler himself and the family history, which I found particularly interesting. The book contains a wealth of knowledge regarding Doppler in obstetrics and gynaecology and would be an excellent reference in a clinical setting. This would be a good book to have in an ultrasound department, especially in a teaching trust. (Melanie Harrison, RAD Magazine, February, 2025)
