This unique book is all about the art of clinical analysis. It comprises of 133 actual cases as they presented with their varied symptom complexes, encompassing a wide clinical spectrum in different subspecialties. To begin with, it briefly discusses the basic concepts of symptoms and signs pertaining to a system, before proceeding with representative cases, which are listed according to the presenting symptoms.
It describes how a sequential analysis of every point in the history, clinical examination and investigations leads to the correct diagnosis. While reading through the cases, the keywords are highlighted, facilitating a quick revision. Thus, this book is different and one of its kind in the sense that it does not intend to teach pediatrics at all; it purely stimulates the reader to develop a fine sense of rational thinking that facilitates clinical diagnosis in the field of pediatrics, through a self-learning, totally case-based format.
Extremely interesting for clinicians, physicians, pediatricians, hematologists, nephrologists, hepatologists, rheumatologists, cardiologists, endocrinologists, neurologists, etc. as well as medical students, teachers and practitioners.
