"The book uses case studies to illustrate different pediatric ailments and their treatments in a variety of care settings. It is comprehensive in its representation of various settings and the pharmacotherapy for different maladies. It is unique in its format of providing questions and answers with explanation...This is a good pharmacotherapy review book for students who may be studying for board exams or wanting a supplemental study guide with comprehensive applied case studies."
