Summary: Great Book
Comment: Most medical textbooks are organized by diagnosis. In real life, one is confronted with signs and symptoms and has to arrive at a diagnosis based on the synthesis and analysis of history, exam, labs, and imaging. That's why this excellent book is so practical--it's organized the way one really does pediatrics. Don't get me wrong--Nelson and such are valuable references, but this book is more helpful in coming up with a diagnosis when presented with a symptom.

Rating: 5
Summary: Good book of differential diagnosis for pediatricians
Comment: Good medical books featuring a symptom rather than a disease based approach are rare. Those books using this approach covering pediatrics even more so. Practical Strategies in Pediatric Diagnosis and Therapy does a good job in helping the pediatric registrar (or house officer) circle in on a diagnosis based on symptoms such as shortness of breath, anaemia or fever of unknown origin. I enjoy this book a lot. I don't quite understand why the publisher makes it so hard to find copies of it.
