Case histories are accompanied by self assessment questions at the end of each chapter, and controversial issues and 'when to refer to a specialist centre' are highlighted for each chapter. The material is well illustrated with photographs and line diagrams. Well illustrated with clinical photographs and line diagrams Detailed information is given on the common endocrine disorders in children, including diabetes and growth problems The book is practical and didactic, and aimed at general hospital paediatric units
