Written by an expert editor/contributor team, it provides in-depth, evidence-based guidance for assessing and managing health problems in children from infancy through adolescence. Other key topics include developmental theory, the health status of children today, issues of daily living, and cultural considerations.

Four-part organization includes an introductory unit, plus units on child development, the health management of children, and diseases and disorders common to childhood.
