Description
Now fully revised and updated with the latest guidelines, this new edition of the Oxford Handbook of Paediatrics is a compact guide to all aspects of acute and chronic pediatrics. The handbook’s team of specialist contributors and editors have successfully condensed many years of clinical experience into a pocket-sized compendium of clinical problems and treatment options. Taking a child-centred approach to the subject, the authors have provided comprehensive coverage of areas such as neonatology, surgery, genetics and congenital malformations, and child protection in a user-friendly and succinct style. Sections are also devoted to covering the treatment of children in the community, and the psychological effects of illness on both the child and their family. All chapters have been updated for this new edition, with completely overhauled chapters on neurology and respiratory medicine, the latest management guidelines on inherited metabolic disease, further information on medical and research ethics, and enhanced usage of diagnostic and treatment algorithms. With practical advice and space for personalized notes, this handbook will be invaluable to all those involved in the care of the younger patient.
Reviews
Findings from cutting-edge research studies from a broad range of sciences, both physical and social — such as behavioral neuroscience, clinical neuroscience, genetics, neuroethology, and of course, psychology — form the basis of this unique book. In this work of over 450 pages, you will cover relatively new ground in molecular psychology when you read about such interesting and fascinating topics as the ‘neuromodulation of social behavior in insects,’ the ‘molecular neurobiology of social bonding,’ the ‘neurochemistry of human aggression and violence,’ and ‘oxytocin and vasopressin gene variation and the neural basis of social behaviors.’ So dig into this book. Discover a brand new physical basis of thought. –Sonu Chandiram, Biz India
