Now fully revised and updated with the latest guidelines, this new edition of the Oxford Handbook of Paediatrics is an easy-to-use and compact guide to all aspects of acute and chronic paediatrics. The team of editors and specialist contributors have successfully condensed many years of clinical experience into a pocket-sized compendium of clinical problems and treatment options. Taking a child-centred approach to the subject, the book provides comprehensivecoverage of areas such as neonatology, surgery, genetics and congenital malformations, and child protection in a user-friendly and succinct style. Sections are also devoted to covering the treatment ofchildren in the community, and the psychological effects of illness on both the child and their family. All chapters have been updated for this new edition, and the practical advice and experience contained within this handbook will be invaluable to all those involved in the care of the younger patient.
