Description
This textbook summarizes paediatrics in a concise, innovative, and memorable way. In line with the new medical curricula, this book is written for medical students in a way that reflects clinical practice. Genuine case histories are considered from the presentation of patients in the primary care situation, through diagnosis of a condition and a clinical management. Paediatrics is subdivided into two sections, the first covering the child in health, the second the child in sickness. The book concentrates on common clinical conditions reflecting the importance of these conditions to clinicians. This book is intended for medical undergraduates in their clinical years. All medical students do a rotation in Paediatrics and need a textbook in the subject.
