Customer Rating:      Summary: Best Book for Pediatrics Comment: Great pediatric book. If you have any interest in pediatrics, this book is well worth looking into.
Customer Rating:      Summary: I use it every day Comment: The reference I use most at work as a nurse practitioner. I especially love the drug guide, vaccine charts and info, peak flows, and vitals norms for ages.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Not the only pocket book. Comment: This book is ubiquitous. Everyone has it. Not everyone needs it. Students don't need it. Sub I's don't need it. So don't buy it. Interns need it-Hit the milk man/lady up for a copy. It's a great reference, but not the only one. Schwartz' clinical pediatrics is better for students and sub-I's. Plus i think Schwartz has a bit more info on diseases and differentials that Harriet. They serve different purposes though. Hospital for sick children has a great book too. The Harriet formulary is helpful, but not always the best source for doses or side effects. I like the skyscape version best. Palm better than pocket PC.
I recommend that you take this book to kinko's, have them split the book in half-i divided mine into the disease section and formulary section. Have them spiral bind it and place plastic covers. It will last longer and you can carry around whichever half you need or put one in each pocket to even out the weight.
This a great book for interns.
Customer Rating:      Summary: The Harriet Lane Handbook: A Manual for Peduatric House Officers, 17th edition Comment: This book is a must for anyone who cares for children in their practice.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Best Peds Reference Comment: This book is all you need in your pocket during Pediatric Rotations. Great quick references, every drug dosing.
