Notwithstanding huge advancement in the West in Emergency pediatrics, it still remains an emerging field in the South-East Asia. Mercifully, in India, it has begun to receive increasing attention. Nevertheless, in spite of the World Health Organization having repeatedly drawn attention to the excellence of case-based teaching and learning, there remains a paucity of such literature in dealing with emergencies and intensive care in pediatrics.
It is in this context that the Case-based Reviews in Pediatric Emergencies by Dr Suraj Gupte, an icon in pediatrics at national and international level, assumes a special significance.
Empowered by over 50 experts as contributors, the book stands out as a unique and innovative treatise dealing with a wide spectrum of pediatric emergencies. These have been dealt with in a comprehensive, lucid, and easy-to-follow manner.
As a norm, each case scenario is followed by a “Critical Case Review in a Nutshell”. The subsequent “Interactive Topic Review” in the form of questions and answers is very pertinent, providing clarity of the subject. The contents, presentation, format, and language are simple, to-the-point, and profusely illustrated using tables, boxes, clinical photographs and other figures, including flowcharts/algorithms. At the end of each chapter, “Key Learning Points” are given to drive home the take-home messages. Each and every chapter is a testimony to the clear and precise thought process of the authors and the editors.
All in all, Dr Suraj Gupte's excellent book, Case-based Reviews in Pediatric Emergencies, in my opinion, is a strongly recommended treatise for all pediatricians, more so for those actively involved in emergency and intensive care pediatrics.

FM13Preface
The new book, Case-based Reviews in Pediatric Emergencies, draws its inspiration from the philosophy that enhancing emphasis on clinical scenarios is crucial to the learning of management of pediatric emergencies. The errors committed and the strong positives attained become a stepping stone in improved clinical delivery of optimal care.
Each of the 45 chapters authored by 53 experts in the field kickstarts with one or more case scenarios, focusing on presentation, diagnosis, and management of the problem. It is followed by a short critical review of the case and developments in its management. The error, if any, and important therapeutic points are particularly brought to light. Finally, there appears an extensive interactive discussion in the form of frequently asked questions (FAQs) on the topic as such. In this discussion, such important points that remain elusive in the textbooks receive special attention.
Clinical orientation and practical applicability receive a central stage in each and every chapter. Contents are rationally listed in various sections. In order to enhance the impact of the narration, a large number of illustrations (including algorithms), tables and boxes stand incorporated. In addition to the core matter, “Key Learning Points” are given at the end. “Suggested Reading” have also been incorporated providing some key references for more probing readers. A comprehensive index is also provided to facilitate easy access to requisite issues.
The Case-based Reviews in Pediatric Emergencies should turn out to be a welcome and significant educational tool for the target readers, especially the postgraduates, residents and upcoming intensivists, and emergency pediatricians.
