This paperback presents a multitude of clinical facts and figures from pediatric emergency medicine in a Q&A format that reads quickly for a busy clinician, house officer, or medical student. It will be helpful to those asking the questions as well as those who answer them. The book is divided into over 60 chapters with a well documented index, and references at the end of each chapter. This book will become a favorite to teachers and students at all levels of experience, and should be available wherever children are seen in an emergent/urgent setting.
