Rudolph's Fundamentals of Pediatrics

"The book has 21 chapters devoted to major fields in pediatrics, with new chapters on adolescence, developmental and behavioral pediatrics, rheumatology, oncology, neurology, and ophthalmology. In addition, chapters on pediatric health supervision and ethics are provided. The chapters are well written, for the most part, with the proper amount of information so that reading is not laborious. The tables and algorithms are plentiful and are a key feature of this book. The figures are helpful and complement the text very well."

"Several books fill the niche between those dealing with the very basics of pediatrics and large reference books. These books are useful for those doing general reading about topics, but inadequate for direct patient care. Students who use this book will be well prepared for end-of-rotation exams and have a good foundation in pediatrics. For residents it is a beneficial book to review and assimilate much information."Rudolph, Abraham M. is the author of 'Rudolph's Fundamentals of Pediatrics', published 2002 under ISBN 9780838584507 and ISBN 0838584500.
