5 out of 5 stars Outstanding!   April 20, 2010

I'm a PA student and I love this book! It's probably too in-depth for board reviews, but OUTSTANDING for concepts in which you're deficient. This book prepared me well for rouding during outpatient peds and newborn nursery.


1 out of 5 stars Incomplete and Inaccurate   December 1, 2009

No mention of ME (CFS) an extremely debilitating and relatively common disease (though less in children than adults). Very brief and inaccurate mention of Fibromyalgia, which is just as disabling and four times as common as ME. Says there is one med approved for Fibro; there are actually three now. Lists Fibro under noninflammatory (!!) pain disorders.

I love the Lange serires of medical texts. They work very well for me in my practice as a nurse practioner for quick look ups as well as for a more indepth study.


5 out of 5 stars The quality we are used to by Lange Series   October 31, 2008

I am waiting to start my pediatrics residency and I bought this book to start studying and prepare myself before starting at the hospital in about 2 years. As with the other books in the current series you experience good and uptodate information in an easy manner and good layout. Not enough pictures, but that's the norm with this series. If you are looking for images of rashes or pediatric disease pictures then you are better off buyng another book, maybe an atlas. If however you want all the facts on a certain disease, then you are covered.


5 out of 5 stars good for interns   December 27, 2005

This was my reference of choice when I was an intern at a busy major children's hospital. It's comprehensive, not too heavy to lug around, gives you the important details and gives you references as to where to go next for further reading. It's not always enough information when it comes to specific cases. I usually went to UpToDate, PedsinReview or lit searches at that point. I think this is a solid book to have early in your career because it lets you cover the most relevant material in a readable manner. As a second year, I don't go back to Currents as much and mostly go with articles.
