Illustrations include clinical photos, imaging, charts, graphs and histology where appropriate.
The author/editor team, supported by specialist contributions from clinicians at Institute of Child Health/Great Ormond Street, offer an unmatched range of expertise in a compact volume, of lasting reference value to paediatricians in training and practice, and to professionals in many other disciplines.
