Paediatric Clinical Examination Made Easy

Fully revised, this is an updated new edition of a much-loved book which has built a reputation for pithy, entertaining good sense over the course of six editions. Children are different. Paediatrics is much more than medicine miniaturised.

From reviews of the previous edition::

All in all a very handy book for the student, the resident or other professionals working with children. I had a lot of fun reading it.

The book is full of wonderful illustrations, and funny and profound advice with quotations, like the words of Sir Dominic Corrigan (1853):: The trouble with many doctors is not that they do not know enough but that they do not see enough, or the advice to teach thy tongue to say I do not know (Rabbi Moses Maimonides or Rambam, 1135-1204). I have used this book for my final medical year paediatrics exams, the DCH and the MRCP and it has been a great help. It reminds us of the most important and basic things - history and examination, and of course a friendly demeanour.
