5.0 out of 5 stars Savvy buy for both the medical student and the PL1 in Peds., December 31, 1998
This was one of my preferred books I used while on my pediatric rotations during medical school. It was a great source of introductory information on interesting topics that were mentioned during rounds, and pointed me in the right direction for more material. It also provided for constructive reading material while on call. I plan to purchase the next edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good book, April 23, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Pediatric Secrets: with STUDENT CONSULT Access (4th Edition) (Paperback)
This book had an excellent amount of depth when considering multiple topics. There was much more information than other review books, and the format of presentation is light as a Q&A format. Although each section appears to randomly skip, it seems to be pretty comprehensive. I have not yet taken the board exam, so I can't say how well it prepared me.
