Puzzles for Medical Students: Paediatrics by Ranjita Howard
'Really useful supplement to all the major text books. Covers all aspects of the differential diagnoses required for your medical finals but would also be suitable for third years and above. Provides a lighter approach to learning such a vast syllabus, although the puzzles are more than just for fun - they really do test you.'

Puzzles for Medical Students: Paediatrics provides a selection of crosswords and word-searches, catering for the absence of more alternative and enjoyable means of learning for medical students during their undergraduate years. Medical students often learn by more formal methods, including textbooks, past papers and lectures, and through more contextual based learning during their hospital experience. This book supplements this often classical approach. Ultimately, it will provide the necessary variety for medical students to relieve fatigue - a common feature of those studying medicine at undergraduate level.
The word-searches are designed to provide a more fun and interactive way of remembering lists, whilst the crosswords are aimed at testing specific knowledge in a relaxed, more familiar and exciting way. All the answers are fully annotated, allowing for easy access to core knowledge and facts.
Covering all the main areas of paediatrics up to the standard of final year medical students, Puzzles for Medical Students is a worthy addition to the undergraduate's revision library.
