This book is a useful investment both for medical practicioners and the loving parents to which it is dedicated.
No medical text can ever be comprehensive, or completely up to date. The science of medicine advances so quickly that books are outdated the day they are published. Nonetheless, "Nelson's Textbook of Pediatrics" comes as close as possible. Along with another other classic pediatric text, "Rudolph's Pediatrics," Nelson's represents the best of pediatric medicine in America.
Every pediatrician has a favorite, but Nelson's is the gold standard. Nelson's is particularly strong in pediatric cardiology and immunology. For the latest in infectious disease, see the "Red Book" published by the American Academy of Pediatrics. For neonatology, developmental pediatrics, and the surgical sub-specialties, consult specialty books in those fields.
For congenital malformations and syndromes, "Smiths's" by Jones!
For the latest in oncology, your best bet after your local trusted oncologist is to search Medline or the Web, but watch out for quackery. The 17th edition of the Nelson Textbook of Pediatrics is available now. I have seen it on the publisher's website. This textbook is one of the main physician-level educational sources for pediatrics, and I highly recommend it for the personal libraries of all medical professionals as well as those in training.
No matter what your field, there will always be the potential that you will become responsible for caring for a child. However, it is usually best to find the latest edition for any textbook. This textbook is the gold standard of pediatric books. I used mine all through medical school and still use it in my practice. I highly recommend this text to students, residents and physcians.
The thought provoking text and excellent illustrations make this a must have book. I couldn't practice without mine. See all 8 reviews. There's a problem loading this menu right now.
