This is a compact handy book containing essential up-to-date information compiled by experts from the Nottingham Medical School. Although there are many 'pocket books' dealing with common paediatric problems, none of them are actually pocket size. Paediatrics is one of the few hospital specialties in which doctors do not wear white coats but they nonetheless need to refer to relevant information. 'Pocket Paediatrics' is a truly pocket-sized book, carefully written and designed to encapsulate vital data that will fit the modern pocket.

This book of 100 unique grey cases grouped into 20 mock exams provides excellent practice for the MRCP II (Paed). The range of topics covered is wide and includes 'composite' case histories which are now appearing in the exam. The questions test the ability to deduce the most likely diagnosis and management using the information provided. Correct answers are graded and frankly wrong answers are listed; for all cases, answers are given full explanation.

The aim of the book is to teach and prepare MRCP candidates for the examination by providing a basic grounding in the core subjects. The questions have been designed in the new style of integrated basic and clinical science. Recent advances in molecular medicine have been incorporated throughout, as have the more traditional basic sciences such as anatomy, physiology, pharmacology and pathology. Every question has a detailed teaching answer, which should eliminate the need for continual reference to a textbook. The answers are composed not merely to answer each question at hand, but also to give a broader look at the subject and to provide a tutorial course in MRCP standard medicine. . This book has been written specifically for the new style MRCP Part 1 examination.
