By adopting the approach of simulating actual morning report sessions experienced by hospital doctors, Clinical Case Studies in Pediatrics provides a compendium of commonly seen types of pediatrics cases that require hospital admission. Each case study is presented by description of indication of admission to the hospital, the physical examination and laboratory test results, followed by a differential diagnosis, discussion of the differential diagnosis, and finally an in-depth discussion of the actual diagnosis. Study and review questions, which will help medical students or pediatricians-in-training to apply their knowledge, are also included. This book will not only be useful to medical students, it can also be a handy reference for pediatricians and doctors-in-training.

This international meeting on ultrahigh energy multiparticle phenomena started with a summary of neutrino physics, followed by a detailed review of LEP results. It moved on to the fast-breaking field of rapidity gaps, hard pomeron and small-x structure functions at both Hera and the FermiLab Tevatron. The major collider experiments at FermiLab, and in particular, the results of the top quark search were presented in complete detail. The fields of intermittency, multiplicities, correlation functions, heavy quarks, soft and semihard hadronic physics, and the particle physics aspects of cosmic rays were subjects of spirited debate.

This volume discusses the most recent results on multiparticle production. These include the differences between quark and gluon jets from LEP at CERN, the search for the disoriented chiral condensate at Fermilab, the existence (or not) of the quark-gluon plasma and the large rapidity gaps in Hera physics. In many different experimental situations, the subject of multiparticle dynamics remains alive.Main speakers: J Antos, B J May, J D Bjorken, P Sondereger, I Tserruya, R C Hwa, R Ugoccioni, A Giovannini, C Grupen, A de Angelis, G Thompson, J Kwiecinski, B Andersson.
