The text is organized in two parts, covering: developmental growth and age-specific common problems; and unexpected paediatric health problems that require hospitalization or major medical and nursing intervention. This edition integrates play safety, language, self-esteem, nutrition, dental health, sleep, exercise, sexuality and other aspects of wellness and health into the appropriate age chapters to provide a holistic view of the child and family.
