Finished my Paeds rotation, let's pretend I finished reading this textbook.

أول مرة أضيف كتاب كان مقرر عليّ في الكلية..
لكن رغم كل السخط والضغط وكذا، بس كانت تجربة جيدة لي كدراسة من المرجع شبه كلية مش المقرر فقط، وكنت حاباها لأسباب تتعلق بي.

Good. But I think it’s summarized and that will be a problem for those with a weak foundation in pathophysiology and adult medicine.
If only the important details were included I think it’ll be half of it’s size. Toooo many repetitions and unnecessary details.
I love it’s summaries and little boxes.
I dislike it’s paragraphs that just repeat stuff over and over and suddenly drop a new sentence.

Good book, easy to go through.
Illustration were of great help to me.
However, a book is never enough in medicine and you can never guarantee the main source of the exam.

was recommended from doctors
after quick surveying and reading it

its the text book for Medical students more goes to the practical areas
& that's what I want...

This is a great book for both Theory and Practical sessions, it covers everything, it's a little bit detailed, so make sure you start a month before your test

The simplest textbook I read it in medicine

This is the most beautiful book of pediatrics I have seen. It is full of pictures, graphics and it is really easy to read. Although it is not enough for requirements of medicine studies, some topics are missing and others are given quite shortly, I loved it. :)

I have a lot of spare time on this placement.

This one is way more interesting than Practical Paediatrics but less applicable in terms of clinical application.

This is your best friend to pass paeds exam

Това не е учебник, а справочник. Не става за четене... Написан е от 7463672781 автора и няма стил, няма душа... И а картинки поне... и таблици. И пише, че е "базиран на доказателствата"... Ем аз нямам доказателство за това, остава ми само вяра, че 4738262636171 автора са имали достъп до доказателствата ;)

Format not ideal but enough detail for a simple MCQ exam

[asmaa Mohamed Ismael · Rating 2 out of 5]

كتاب سيىء جدا و ناقص لا يشرح اي شيىء
و ان كانت المادة نفسها عظيمة❤️

[Lasse Carlsson · Rating 3 out of 5]

Teksten er ret tung at komme igennem, men til gengæld er illustrationerne meget gode

Spectacular give me 14 of these ✨✨❤️

A very concise textbook, it covers an enormous area, not in any great detail, but in enough. It gives a good foundation of paediatric medicine on top of which one can build up their understanding by googling the conditions only briefly described. In order to make the most of this book, I think it is first necessary to have studied some general (adult) medicine, and then after having read it, test yourself on your new knowledge. 'Passmedicine' is what I'd recommend for that. All in all, this was a very readable textbook that kept me pretty interested. I would have liked a bit more personality in it, but I still haven't gotten over the brilliance of 'Psychiatry PRN'.

[Mohammad Al Refaei · Rating 5 out of 5]

Very good textbook to study medicine as an undergraduate student.
I did not like the pictures very much but the text was very clear and thorough (for the purpose of this book but not for a specialist anyway). The self-assessment book was very helpful to revise and fully understand the material.
Highly recommended.

A very good introduction to paediatrics world, I like they way of presenting information, covering almost everything but not that detailed. I recommend it as a first paediatric book to read, for 3-5 years of medical studies, for last year students need more detailed book I guess..

[^_^ · Rating 2 out of 5]

this was boring.... except for a few chapters... I would've chosen another source to study but unfortunately this was the recommended for the curriculum.

[Manal · Rating 3 out of 5]

[Alibumble · Rating 3 out of 5]

More textbook than management. For background reading not for the emergency floor.
