Paediatrics at a Glance provides an accessible, user-friendly guide to the entire paediatric curriculum. The 4th edition, thoroughly updated to reflect changes in understanding of childhood illness over the last five years, diagrammatically summarises the main differential diagnoses for each presenting symptom. Accompanying text covers important disorders and conditions as well as management information. Expanding on previous editions, this book features new chapters on psychological issues and ethics in child health, advances in genetics, screening, and therapy of childhood illness, and a brand new chapter on Palliative Care—an emerging area in the specialty. Full colour artwork throughout enhances understanding, while a companion website at www.ataglanceseries.com/paediatrics offers interactive self-assessment case studies, MCQs, videos of procedures and concepts covered in the book, and links to online resources. Ideal for students and healthcare professionals alike, this edition continues to be a best-seller in its field.
