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.
