| Abstract | Now from the AAP! The newly revised and expanded 3rd edition provides clear, concise guidance on clinical and psychosocial issues. ₃This is an outstanding book which I have already recommended to colleagues. One can easily read a chapter a day and feel confident that one has learned something new. No other book that I know of is so useful. Madelyn Meyn, MD ; Doody's Review, 2009. Berkowitz's Pediatrics is custom built for confident, efficient primary care problem solving; quick and easy access to state of the art pediatric primary care; outcome centric focus -- chapters open with a case presentation and list of focal questions, and close with the case resolution; ready reference organization -- disease, disorder signs and symptoms are grouped by body system for fast lookup; superb color figures -- illustrated clinical presentations and treatment procedures; expert recommendations -- edited by a leading primary care authority, with contributions from top tier practitioners; and valuable guidance on psychosocial issues behavioral concerns, health maintenance and promotion, and people skills. |
