| Summary |
"When caring for the well or ill child, recognising and responding to their anatomical and physiological differences is essential. Fundamentals of Children's Anatomy and Physiology provides child nursing students and registered nurses with a succinct but complete overview of the structure and function of the child's body, plus clinical applications throughout to demonstrate how the concepts relate to real-life nursing. Each chapter lists learning outcomes and includes clinical considerations, body maps, a range of high-quality illustrations and test-your-knowledge questions. The book is also accompanied by a companion website with further self-assessment and quizzes"--Publisher's description |
