    Hi, Could someone recommend a pediatrics text?

    I have Nelsons and it's pretty good but would prefer something written by an english author, I almost always find the style easier to read.

    Thanks

    "Illustrated Textbook of Paediatrics" by Lissauer and Clayden - 3rd Edition.

    Great book, pretty simple but will require supplementation in parts from other sources/texts. On the whole, the best book that's out there aimed at undergrads.

    An excellent book! It's British, nicely laid out, enjoyable to read and has most of what you need to know.

    Nice pic! I skimmed the first couple of chapters last night, seems to be very readable.

    +1, I love this book, but bear in mind the bold text: it is missing some key information. Rates of growth at the various stages is one thing jumping out at me that you'll need to get elsewhere.
