A very concise textbook, it covers an enormous area, not in any great detail, but in enough. It gives a good foundation of paediatric medicine on top of which one can build up their understanding by googling the conditions only briefly described. In order to make the most of this book, I think it is first necessary to have studied some general (adult) medicine, and then after having read it, test yourself on your new knowledge. 'Passmedicine' is what I'd recommend for that. All in all, this was a very readable textbook that kept me pretty interested. I would have liked a bit more personality in it, but I still haven't gotten over the brilliance of 'Psychiatry PRN'.
