Reviews
"Everything I covered in my paediatric rotation is included in this book. As with all the 'at a Glance' series, the use of diagrams as a summary to label key points is brilliant for initiallylearning the topic and in revision. They are clear and easily accessible." "Medical student, Southampton University"
"It is overall, an excellent basic Paediatrics book. It is particularly useful for reading up around (before/after) seeing a particular condition on the wards/in clinic, as it allows a rapid summary of topics to be accessed in just a few minutes." "Medical student, Oxford University"
