Came in perfect condition!

A Must-Have

If you need to buy one Pediatric book for pictures, quick reference, and ease in using, it is this one. It is the first place I go when looking up specific pediatric pathology. It's application to general Pediaric is relevant to all facets of my practice.

Worth Every Penny

The person who thinks the price of this book is insanity is obviously not a medical professional. Compared to the usual price of a medical text with color illustrations, it's a steal. This outstanding atlas belongs in every office that provides health care to children. I've used it continuously since the first edition came out when I was in pediatric residency training a dozen years ago.

A great visual catalog of pediatric pearls

A number of my colleagues told me that they used this book almost exclusively to study for the Pediatric Boards. While I'm not sure I would use this as my sole source, there is no doubt that this book is excellent. Although the text is not quite as comprehensive as a major textbook of medicine (like Nelson's, or Oski's), it is very concise and readable. Its major strength is the number and quality of photographs depicting important clinical signs and symptoms, from the common (eczema, tinea capitis), to the rare (incontinentia pigmenti, Williams syndrome, etc.) When I entered my pediatric residency, many of the senior residents told me that this book was highly recommended. They were not mistaken. I recommend this book highly...

No Pediatrician or resident should be without this book

There are hundreds (Thousands?) of full color pictures covering all aspects of pediatric diagnosis including DERMATOLOGY! This book is worth several times its price!
