John Wiley and Sons Ltd Hendees Radiation Therapy Physics
Book SynopsisThe publication of this fourth edition, more than ten years on from the publication of Radiation Therapy Physics third edition, provides a comprehensive and valuable update to the educational offerings in this field. Led by a new team of highly esteemed authors, building on Dr Hendee's tradition, Hendee's Radiation Therapy Physics offers a succinctly written, fully modernised update. Radiation physics has undergone many changes in the past ten years: intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) has become a routine method of radiation treatment delivery, digital imaging has replaced film-screen imaging for localization and verification, image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) is frequently used, in many centers proton therapy has become a viable mode of radiation therapy, new approaches have been introduced to radiation therapy quality assurance and safety that focus more on process analysis rather than specific performance testing, and the explosion in patient-anTrade Review"The book is well structured and gives an excellent overview on all practical aspects of modern radiotherapy and the physics involved. The many examples and problems allow for immediate check of the understanding of the text and make it fun to read. The new editors certainly did a very good job in carrying on the tradition of the original book" Physica Medica, Feb 2017. Full review available here "The newly published fourth edition of Hendee’s Radiation Therapy Physics (Authors: Todd Pawlicki, Daniel J. Scanderbeg, George Starkschall) provides an updated overview, analysis and practical guidance of the various aspects of the radiation therapy physics.

John Wiley and Sons Ltd Avoiding Errors in Paediatrics
Book SynopsisFor Junior Doctors, Specialty Trainees, and all those involved in hospital governance, this book offers the ultimate real-life guide to help tackle the professional and emotional challenges of life as a doctor in paediatrics. Unlike other clinical management titles, this book identifies and explains the most common and important medical errors.Trade Review“My experience as an expert witness in clinical negligence cases, MPTS Panel chairman, medical adviser to a Public Inquiry and as a sometimes commissioned independent reporter on adverse incidents tells me that these are excellent books, valuable for all clinicians, not just those in high-risk specialties; and all NHS managers involved in maintaining or improving the quality of care. The case vignettes, alone, are useful source material for teaching medical trainees on what can go wrong and how to deal with it when it does.” (Harvey Marcovitch, Clinical Risk journal) "This book is well written and easily read. It is divided into three main parts. The first part deals in general terms with the areas in which errors tend to occur. The importance of good communication, both written and oral, is repeatedly stressed. The contribution of poor management and of system errors in the creation of problems is not overlooked. The section on legal aspects of errors, including discussion of negligence, consent and confidentiality is concise and clear. The second part consists of thirty-six case studies. These are interesting and thought provoking, with questions for the reader at significant points in the progress of each case. An expert opinion, legal comment and key learning points are given at the conclusion of each case. Part 3 gives information and advice on responding to complaints, managing mishaps and navigating the hazards of police, court and GMC involvement. Again it is concise and helpful. After sections 1 and 3, and after every case study in section 2, references and suggestions for further reading are given. I would strongly recommend this book to all paediatricians, at all levels. It is well structured, easy to read and informative. I would also like to see medical and non-medical managers reading it, as it puts into perspective the role of system failures that so often contribute significantly to clinical errors. I think that general practitioners would also find it well worth reading." (Hilary Haines, F.R.C.P.C.H., F.F.P.H.) Pre-publication reviews: “I think in Medicine it is always best to learn from others’ mistakes rather than waiting until you make your own. In addition, knowing what you can expect if a complaint is made goes some way to emphasising the importance of avoiding errors in the first place. Should a complaint be made, forewarned is forearmed.” (ST1 in Paediatrics) “The format of presenting “real life” cases with expert clinical and legal commentary is both entertaining and highly informative.” (Consultant Paediatrician)Table of ContentsContributors, viii Foreword, ix Abbreviations, xi Introduction, xiii Part 1 Section 1: Errors and their causes A few words about error, 1 Learning from system failures – the vincristine case, 1 Person-centred paediatric errors and their causes, 8 The patient consultation, 10 Failure to identify a sick child, 12 Inability to perform practical procedures competently, 13 Failure to check test results or act on abnormal findings, 15 Prescribing errors, 16 Failures in resuscitation, 17 Sources of error in child protection cases, 19 References and further reading, 22 Section 2: Medico-legal aspects Error in a legal context, 25 Negligence, 25 Medical negligence, 26 Issues around consent, 29 Confidentiality, 34 References and further reading, 37 Part 2 Clinical cases Introduction, 39 Case 1 A boy with a limp, 40 Case 2 A fitting infant, 43 Case 3 A persistent fever, 45 Case 4 A biking injury, 48 Case 5 A teenager with abdominal pain, 51 Case 6 A young girl with a vaginal discharge, 54 Case 7 An iatrogenic problem, 57 Case 8 An infant with a large head, 59 Case 9 An infant with bloody diarrhoea, 62 Case 10 An infant with persistent jaundice, 64 Case 11 A child with leukaemia and tummy ache, 66 Case 12 A boy with fever and rigors, 68 Case 13 A stiff hand, 70 Case 14 A serious feeding problem, 72 Case 15 Fits, faints and funny turns, 74 Case 16 A hospital acquired infection, 76 Case 17 Recurrent wheeze, 79 Case 18 A jaundiced neonate, 82 Case 19 A febrile boy with a limp, 85 Case 20 A febrile neonate, 87 Case 21 A neonate with abnormal movements, 89 Case 22 A teenager with scrotal pain, 91 Case 23 A boy with nonspecific symptoms, 93 Case 24 A delayed walker, 96 Case 25 A diabetic girl with a headache, 98 Case 26 A boy with sickle cell disease and a fever, 101 Case 27 Negative test results, 104 Case 28 A bad case of ‘flu, 107 Case 29 A difficult transfer, 110 Case 30 Treatment for tonsillitis, 112 Case 31 Increasing respiratory distress, 114 Case 32 A feverish girl with poor feeding, 116 Case 33 An infant with a swollen face, 118 Case 34 Starting a new treatment, 121 Case 35 The importance of interpretation, 124 Case 36 A febrile boy with a scald, 126 Part 3 Investigating and dealing with errors 1 Introduction, 129 2 How hospitals try to prevent errors and their recurrence, 129 3 The role of hospital staff, 134 4 External investigators, 136 5 Hospital investigations, 138 6 Legal advice – where to get it and how to pay, 143 7 External inquiries, 146 8 The role of the doctor, 165 9 Emotional repercussions, 167 10 Conclusion, 169 References and further reading, 169 Index, 171

John Wiley & Sons Inc Ethical Issues in Forensic Psychiatry
Book SynopsisEthical medical practice and treatment in psychiatry are based on the concept of first do no harm. However, this cannot, and does not, apply to forensic cases where there is no doctorpatient relationship and the forensic psychiatrist may indeed cause harm to the examinee. In this book, Robert Sadoff analyzes the ethical issues affecting forensic psychiatric practice, especially those promulgated by the American Academy of Psychiatry and the Law. Within those guidelines, he looks at individual bias, vulnerability of the examinee, and potential harm to the mental health professional. The book discusses each of the procedures of the forensic expert separately with respect to minimizing harm. It has been written with an international audience in mind and features chapters reviewing the European and UK perspectives, by Emanuele Valenti and John Baird, respectively. Robert Sadoff addresses the long-term harm that can be either avoided or minimized through careful planning and applicationTrade Review"Sadoff's book is a vital contribution to the psychiatric literature, as it fills a need unaddressed by more theoretically oriented works. Anyone interested in mental health or medical ethics will find this text worthwhile, especially as it contains an introduction for lay readers explaining basic forensic roles and functions.The book is most valuable, however, to forensic mental health practioners, who will benefit from its practical instruction aimed at minimizing harm." (Journal of Clinical Psychiatry, December 2012) "Sadoff has crafted an admirable mix of facts and anecdotes, presented in a manner that could help undergraduates get a taste for the realities of forensic practice, help graduate students connect the theoretical with the practical, and even provide veteran practitioners with helpful reminders and provocative food for thought." (PsycCRITIQUES, 23 November 2011) "It will serve as a useful resource and is a welcome addition to my library." (Doody's, 11 November 2011) "While Ethical Issues in Forensic Psychiatry appears to be targeted at the forensic psychiatrist, as emphasised in the title, I believe that it can be valuable reading for all forensic mental health professionals. . . Ethical Issues in Forensic Psychiatry makes practical ethics easy reading. . . This book is an invaluable guide to ethical practice."

John Wiley & Sons Inc Bipolar Disorder
Book SynopsisBipolar Disorder Bipolar disorder is the most complex psychiatric disorder with different types of mood episodes, subtypes, varied course, and significant comorbidity. Not surprisingly, this complexity poses unique challenges to clinicians for optimal management of those with bipolar disorder. There has been an explosion of research into the causes and treatment of this condition over the past two decades. It is a daunting task for a practising clinician to make sense of this research and to remain up to date with progress in the understanding of the neurobiology and treatment of bipolar disorder. This book synthesizes and translates the vast array of research knowledge into information that is both relevant and meaningful for a clinician. The book provides a comprehensive, yet focused, reference work on bipolar disorder for both trainees and practising psychiatrists. The two editors are leaders in the field who have published extensively on bipolar disorder. They have Trade Review"...The textbook is also an ideal starting point for trainees and young investigators just beginning to explore these subjects.

John Wiley & Sons Inc Buprenorphine
Book SynopsisBuprenorphine: Combatting Drug Abuse with a Unique Opioid Editors: Alan Cowan and John W. Lewis Scientists involved in the study of opioid pharmacology and drug abuse have long included among their goals the development of effective analgesics with reduced potential for abuse and dependence, and the development of effective pharmacological agents for the treatment of opioid abuse and dependence. Buprenorphine appears to have made an important scientific and clinical contribution on both of these fronts. In this timely volume, international experts describe the unusual chemical and biological characteristics which make this agent unique, from the opiate receptor, through animal pharmacology, to clinical uses, culminating in a discussion of the use of buprenorphine as a medication in the treatment of opioid abuse. Buprenorphine holds great promise as a significant addition to the therapeutic menu available to drug abuse therapists. Buprenorphine: CombaTable of ContentsPartial table of contents: CHEMISTRY.
