Specializes in Pediatrics

Depends: Depends on your goals and previous educational training. In Pediatrics The Red Book Atlas of Pediatric Infectious Disease is our "bible" when we need a reference. There are plenty of interesting non-fiction books out there for the curious. http://www.goodreads.com/shelf/show/infectious-disease
