Symptoms of Disease in Childhood

By Timothy J. David

This guide to the diagnosis of illness in children does not cover treatment and management, but instead lists the presenting features which occur in children and points out possible diagnosis. Patients are presented to the doctor with symptoms not with diagnosis, therefore, a book organized by symptoms is useful to the student doctor and family practitioner. Of course, symptoms alone can only suggest a list of possible diagnosis and the doctor must make any necessary further investigations in order to refine the diagnosis and arrive at the most likely condition.
