Clinical Cases for MRCPCH Foundations of Practice

This new textbook from the UK Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health contains 50 chapters covering the Foundation of Practice syllabus. Each chapter contains questions similar to those used in the exam, with answers, discussion, references and suggestions for further reading.

The Foundation of Practice examination is taken by MRCPCH and DCH candidates in the UK and abroad. The authors include both established consultants as well as paediatricians in training, so you can be assured that the content reflects contemporaneous paediatric practice.

I found the book enjoyable and stimulating and was struck as much by the readability of the style as the day-to-day relevance of the content; this is no compendium of esoteric medical rarities, but a practical aid to everyday paediatrics. The authors and editors are to be congratulated for producing an excellent resource. This textbook will stand you in good stead for the MRCPCH examinations, but above all, I believe you will find it an enjoyable and stimulating read.
