Reviews
5 Star Reviews:

"This book certainly does not disappoint! This is a very well written book - very succinct and filled with extremely useful flowcharts and tables." Amazon reviewer
"Great comprehensive Paeds book for medical students and junior doctors alike. The book is organised into sections (e.g. GI / Resp / Cardiovascular) which makes it easy to look things up. Each chapter starts with a few cases which go over a typical presentation, diagnosis and then management which is very helpful, and also a few questions to test yourself, with answers provided at the end of the chapter." Amazon reviewer
"Another great guide book from Eureka, with highly distilled information to deliver key clinical information and underlying science in an efficient and user friendly format. I was surprised with the extensive content of this book, covering the spectrum of paediatric presentations including an extremely useful paediatric emergencies section in preparation for hitting the wards as a junior doctor." Amazon reviewer
