Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - In depth coverage of pediatric emergencies.
This textbook is the latest (2008) comprehensive treatise covering the subspecialty of pediatric emergency medicine. It is easy to read, replete
with colorful figures, illustrations, photographs, and the like. Each chapter opens with key points summarized for the reader, and ends with references that are marked to direct further reading on that particular topic. I heartily recommend this book to all practitioners in the field.
