The present tenth edition of “Children’s Diseases”, by Professors A. Koltypin, N. Langovoi and V. Vlasov, has been revised by Professors V. Vlasov and B. Shirvindt. The objective of this textbook is to provide the medical student with basic information on first aid to sick children and the care and treatment of children in hospitals.

While particular attention is given to material pertaining to clinical observation, care and medical treatment, which is presented in great detail, considerable space is also devoted to pathogenesis, as correct treatment is impossible without an understanding of the causes and mechanisms of the given disease. Hygiene, care and food being factors of prime importance in the treatment of sick children, special attention is given to the sections of the textbook that deal with those subjects.

The tables in the appendix will, the authors believe, be of practical value to graduate nurses and pediatricians
