Reviews
Without a doubt, this book is truly unique amongst paediatric textbooks. I have not come across any other book which provides such a comprehensive atlas of paediatric conditions. The sheer number of clinical pictures and their quality is exceptional. The book has its own website which is very easy to use and allows remote access to all the text and pictures of the book. Additionally, the pictures can be downloaded for use in personal presentations. For those involved in teaching, this feature is priceless. I would strongly recommend this book to any health professional involved in the care of children.
