This review is from: Manual of Developmental and Behavioral Problems in Children (Pediatric Habilitation) (Hardcover)
This book will help you evaluate, diagnose and manage pediatric patients with developmental and behavioral problems. The emphasis was placed on conditions likey to be seen in practice, but the rare topics are also covered and referenced. Tables and flow diagrams help quick decision making, CPT codes and toll free numbers of national organizations are provided. A must have handbook for busy pediatricians and peds residents.

By A Customer
This review is from: Manual of Developmental and Behavioral Problems in Children (Pediatric Habilitation) (Hardcover)
This volume is an excellent addition to the Pediatric Habilitation series. It is just the right size and level of complexity for medical students and pediatric housestaff on a one month rotation or elective in Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics, and is brief enough to be useful to the medical practitioner as a quick review of the basic principles of development. The present text is an excellent summary of the basic principles needed to avoid the more common errors in managing developmental problems. It fills an urgent need for a concise overview and is highly recommended as an introductory text for students at all levels.
