The Harriet Lane Handbook has long been a trusted resource for pediatric residents and a good quick reference for practicing pediatricians. Even in this day of internet access, having a pocket manual for quick access is valuable. The book is updated by the residents at John's Hopkins every couple of years and therefore remains current. It contains concise information on development, immunology, infectious diseases, drug doses, nutrition, lab values, etc etc.
