Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Morbidly Obese

The 18th edition of Nelson is horrifically overweight: difficult to handle and unwieldy and the reference ranges are gone. The 17th edition was a much better size.

Please authors/editors- a strict diet is required before any forthcoming editions... a general textbook is not meant to be exhaustive on every subject- there are specialty texts for that. So for goodness sakes, trim the fat next time round !



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Nelsons Pediatrics
Awesome source of any pediatric literature! Need to have one if you are seeing pediatric patients!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fantastic Reference Text for Chiropractors
This book is a must for chiropractors who's practice includes pediatric patients. It is a one stop source for everything I have needed in practice.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent
One of the best all around references I have found. It gives you the important info you need and cuts out the fluff.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - THE Textbook of Pediatrics.
This is THE textbook of pediatrics. I own Rudolphs and Oski's as well. This is the book to buy (or read if you have MDconsult). It has the best diagrams, graphs and is the easiest to read. Don't waste your time with the minibooks such as currents or the mini Nelson book, as most of the information in those books is available for free online on websites such as eMedicine etc... One think i must stress however is that we all need to read the classic core texts. So much emphasis is placed on "Evidence Based Medicine" and advanced diagnostic testing and the latest treatments that we often forget the core pathophysiology of the disease. And that is why core texts like this and Harrison's are still relevant today. We still need our building blocks.
