Berkowitz's pediatrics

by Carol D. Berkowitz

The new 4th edition provides concise, practice-oriented guidance on all the most common issues, both clinical and psychosocial, you're likely to encounter. Here is hands-on help on topics ranging from temper tantrums and thumb-sucking to childhood cancer, kidney disease, and diabetes. Each clinical chapter reviews pertinent epidemiology and pathophysiology, then gives you clear, concise guidelines on what symptoms to look for, what alternative diagnoses to consider, what tests to order, and how to manage your patient.
