Child Abuse and Neglect: Diagnosis, Treatment and Evidence focuses
attention on the clinical evidence of child abuse to help you
correctly diagnose and treat such cases in your own practice. This
unique, well-illustrated clinical reference provides new insights into
the presentation and differential diagnosis of physical abuse, a look
at shaken baby syndrome, sex offenders and abuse in religious
organizations, information on the biomechanics of injury, and more.
Great for general review, as well as clinical reference, it’s also
ideal for those taking the American Board of Pediatrics’ new
subspecialty board exam in Child Abuse Pediatrics.

* Recognize the signs of shaken baby syndrome, sex offenders and abuse
