Description
Book SynopsisFully revised for the new edition, this handbook covers all significant aspects of acute and chronic paediatrics. Areas such as neonatology, surgery, genetics and congenital malformations, and child protection are covered in a user-friendly and succinct style.
Trade ReviewAt the top of the front cover, there is an impressive sounding strapline "The comprehensive guide for clinical care of the young patient" and this is no empty boast. The book is a superb tour of paediatrics and goes into many topics in significant depth. Not bad for a handbook! * Dr Harry Brown, Glycosmedia *
Review from previous edition Coming from the impressive pedigree of the Oxford Handbook series, I was very much looking forward to reviewing this book. I certainly was not disappointed as it is a superb review of the subject and can be worth its weight in gold. * Dr. Harry Brown at glycosmedia.com *
