Paediatrics is an unique subject as far as PG Preparation is concerned. You will never know whether you need to read Paediatrics, how much of Paediatrics to read and how much you can manage with Medicine, Pathology and Microbiology. The Dilemma does not end after you have decided to prepare with "Paediatrics Proper". Another question arises out of blue then. What to read and where to read. Once you have decided that and start preparing , you will come to know that Paediatrics deserves a special attention compared to other subjects due the fact that the subject will appear perfectly clear and you will have a "deja vu" when you are reading. In the examination hall the situation becomes "jamais vu" when the question is focused (and we are off target). This justifies that to be able to face questions from Paediatrics confidently in the exams, you need to revise and perhaps re-revise the subject a number of times. Books that help in review like Question and Answer books and Pre-test series are definitely needed for this subject if not for others. Though no single book can be claimed to be complete for Paediatrics, there are a lot of books which will tell us what we know and more importantly what we don't know. "Review in Paediatrics " by A. Edwin Dias and published by Peepee publishers is one of the books that can be used to brush up your knowledge. Though this title deals with few topics only, the style is refreshingly lucid and up to the point. In spite of this not being a "complete" volume there are a lot of points which are emphasized in this book and that come regularly in various exams set by the faculty at AIIMS and State PGs. Most of the MCQs given here have been already asked in various exams more than once. The facts are minimal, probably since the author had targeted his book mainly for the Foreign exams like PLAB and USMLE. We are impressed with the authors effort to make a concept clear to the student and then provide few points regarding that, though the facts are minimal. For example the Chapter on Genetics has questions only from Down's Syndrome. A few more high yield points, say, from Turner's, Klinefelter's, Cri-du-chat etc could have made the book much lucrative. The importance of Numerical Values that are often asked, especially in State PG Entrance Exams are stressed.
