Book Description

Unintentional injuries, including car crashes, drowning, burns, poisoning, and suffocation, are a leading cause of death to young children. Child abuse, infectious diseases, and food poisoning also affect children under five. This bibliography provides information useful to those who care for young children, who are doing research on how to prevent injuries, or who supervise or train people who care for children either in child care or home settings. The volume is organized by types of injuries, and each section includes references providing information about prevalence, risk factors, specific hazards, and prevention techniques for the the injury area.

It will be a useful reference book for investigators, injury practitioners, and students alike."-Frederick P. Rivara, M.D., M.P.H. George Adkins Professor of Pediatrics, Harborview Injury Prevention and Research Center
