Reviews
This handbook is comprehensive yet concise and would serve as a handy and quick reference point in the clinic. It would be useful not only for pediatric rheumatologists but also for trainee pediatricians, nurses, and multidisciplinary therapists. The authors need to be congratulated for their efforts. * Indian Journal of Rheumatology *

Paul Brogan trained in paediatric nephrology before moving into paediatric rheumatology.

He has published over 100 peer reviewed papers, several international book chapters, and three previous Oxford University Press titles (two in paediatric nephrology; and the first edition of the Oxford Specialist Handbook of Paediatric Rheumatology). His programme of translational research has delivered next generation sequencing genetic testing into routine clinical practice for patients with suspected monogenic inflammation in the UK and beyond. He leads national clinical services for autoinflammation and vasculitis of the young; and is the chief investigator for several international clinical trials.
