Great updated reference book. Has new Relative Infant Dose (RID). The preface - 20 pgs - explains extremely well how to use the book. Biggest limitation / problem is the weight of the book - too heavy. The size of the book has changed to accommodate all the data. I wish this book could be bought as an ebook.
