From the Foreword . . .
“The Purple Book is a tried and true, concise, user-friendly compendium of pretty much every-thing you need to know to engage in vaccine practice. TPB is the next best thing to having a personal vaccine expert on speed dial. . . or in the office next door. I have both, but I still use TPB on a regular basis (there’s also a copy in our clinic and one in the fellow’s welcome packet).”

– Kris A. Bryant, MD
President
Pediatric Infectious Diseases Society

The Reviews:
The Vaccine Handbook is a wonderful, thorough collection of valuable information for all clinicians who vaccinate children. A must have reference book for every office.
– Paul A. Offit, MD Maurice R. Hilleman Professor of Vaccinology and Professor of Pediatrics, University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine

This book gives clinicians a well-organized and efficient one-stop source for information on immunizations and vaccine preventable diseases.
– Kevin J. Downes, MD Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center

During my more than 20 years in the field of immunization education, I have not seen another book that is so brimming with state-of-the-science information.
– Deborah L. Wexler, MD Executive Director, Immunization Action Coalition
