Customer Reviews: Nelsons Pediatrics Awesome source of any pediatric literature! Need to have one if you are seeing pediatric patients!
Fantastic Reference Text for Chiropractors This book is a must for chiropractors who's practice includes pediatric patients. It is a one stop source for everything I have needed in practice.
Excellent One of the best all around references I have found. It gives you the important info you need and cuts out the fluff.
THE Textbook of Pediatrics. This is THE textbook of pediatrics. I own Rudolphs and Oski's as well. This is the book to buy (or read if you have MDconsult). It has the best diagrams, graphs and is the easiest to read. Don't waste your time with the minibooks such as currents or the mini Nelson book, as most of the information in those books is available for free online on websites such as eMedicine etc... One think i must stress however is that we all need to read the classic core texts. So much emphasis is placed on "Evidence Based Medicine" and advanced diagnostic testing and the latest treatments that we often forget the core pathophysiology of the disease. And that is why core texts like this and Harrison's are still relevant today. We still need our building blocks.
New Edition Available The 17th edition of the Nelson Textbook of Pediatrics is available now. I have seen it on the publisher's website. This textbook is one of the main physician-level educational sources for pediatrics, and I highly recommend it for the personal libraries of all medical professionals as well as those in training. No matter what your field, there will always be the potential that you will become responsible for caring for a child. However, it is usually best to find the latest edition for any textbook.
