Reviews:
Highly Commended in Paediatrics Category, British Medical Association Book Prize 2006
This book is a pleasure to read. The text is simple and well-written, and summary boxes aid recall and understanding. Illustrations are clear and helpful. The vast majority of the subject matter is important reading for the vast majority of paediatricians. In particular I would recommend this book as vital reading for trainees about to take their MRCPCH viva examinations.

The latest in this popular series of paediatric reviews provides a useful update for general paediatricians and primary care practitioners...it is a useful quick reference for topics such as infant feeding, child abuse and screening.
