5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Paediatric quick, easy to access reference guide.
Reviewed in the United States on 17 March 2014
Verified Purchase
Ongoing evolution of a manual that has been in use for interns, GP's, and remote practitioners.
Used to be required for every intern and junior house officer to have in his pocket while working in our paediatric wards.( probably still is)
Written from ROYAL CHILDREN's Hospital, that for a long time, had the mantle of Australia's best Paediatric Hospital, a mantle now arguably shared with some in other States too.
In 38 years, I have never been without this manual, and it's updates.
It belongs on the shelf of every intern, GP, and remote practitioner's shelf.
