Children pose a particular challenge to doctors and paediatricians as they often have difficulty in describing their particular symptoms and their parents' descriptions can be vague and confusing. This volume outlines clinical approaches to common paediatric problems, covering a total of 17 emergency and 19 outpatients symptoms, ranging from seizures to abnormal puberty. The text is supported by flow diagrams and will be of use to junior doctors in paediatrics and primary care and undergraduate medical students specializing in paediatrics.
