Reviewing the book in 2008 Rolf Zetterström noted that it was "in some respects [...] more Stapleton's autobiography than a book about IPA" and credited him with "important contributions to paediatrics, such as the elucidation of a near-epidemic of hyper-calcaemia in infants, due to overdosage of vitamin D."
