This title provides a superb introduction to child health in the community for those with some experience of clinical paediatrics and is an excellent text for self-directed learning and examination preparation. Its emphasis is on the social and educational significance of paediatric problems, bringing together he latest research and guidelines in both the UK and other countries.
