Concise Guide to Child and Adolescent Psychiatry ) PDF

It is an appetizer, and sort of a helping hand, to get ready for the entrees (the real text books)
This is a great friend for a third year resident or a first year fellow, who has just come from the adult world. It is very helpful to have when you are rounding, or have a patient to see within the next few minutes, or a colleague might ask you a question at a presentation, or has asked you a question and are returning to you to discuss more about it....It has often helped me get more confidence when discussing any thing, as it brushes through the basics.

It is helpful in both the scenarios.
A. If you do not know anything about a topic this comes very handy to just get a basic idea of what the disease entity or the topic in conversation is even when you do not know a damn thing about it. This book gives you the bread and butter of a disorder viz. the etiology, signs (if any) symptoms, and management. It is sort of a reminder flash card, which you can keep in your pocket.
B. It is also very helpful, if we know about a topic and are just blanking at that time, very helpful to remember the data we might have read previously from a bigger book.

It is not an alternative or a shortcut to reading the real books, but it certainly gives a good framework to build around, and is also a small transitional object thing you can around in your coat pocket, to help you in the child psych rotation(for med students and residents), and to look "learned" in front of the med students and residents (for fellows).

Love this little book. I am a student Psych APN and this book is great as a pocket reference as well as just to read when I have a spare moment between patients. It is a great resource. Highly recommend this book.
