With hundreds of question and answer items and bite-sized chunks of information that can be read and processed easily, reviewing for the pediatric board exams - or just brushing up in your spare time - has never been easier. Pediatric Tricky Topics, Volume 2: A Practically Painless Review includes review items in pediatric immunology, hematology, oncology, nephrology, urology, dermatology, ophthalmology, otorhinolaryngology, and gynecology, among others. Selected expanded sections provide more in-depth information, while the Q&A format allows for self-testing or study with a partner or a group and is practical and accessible enough to dip into during a few minutes of downtime at the hospital or office. As such, it is suitable for those studying for the pediatric board exam, practicing physicians brushing up their skills, and any busy medical student, nurse or clinician who wants to learn more about these topics while on the go.

“The primary purpose is to provide exam or ward or practice review of clinically relevant knowledge. … The intended audience is medical, nursing, and nurse practitioner students, but the book could be helpful for physician assistant students as well. As we all are lifetime learners, this book is helpful for practitioners in these areas as well for exam preparation, including recertification.” (Joseph R. Hageman, Doody's Book Reviews, August, 2017)
