Avoiding Errors in General Practice

By: Kevin Barraclough,Jenny du Toit,Jeremy Budd,Joseph E. Raine,Kate Williams,Jonathan Bonser

Some of the most important and best lessons in a doctor’s career are learnt from mistakes. However, an awareness of the common causes of medical errors and developing positive behaviours can reduce the risk of mistakes and litigation. Written for Foundation Year doctors, trainees and general practitioners, and unlike any other clinical management title available, Avoiding Errors in General Practice identifies and explains the most common errors likely to occur in an outpatient setting - so that you won’t make them. The first section in this brand new guide discusses the causes of errors in general practice. The second and largest section consists of case scenarios and includes expert and legal comment as well as clinical teaching points and strategies to help you engage in safer practice throughout your career. The final section discusses how to deal with complaints and the subsequent potential medico-legal consequences, helping to reduce your anxiety when dealing with the consequences of an error. Invaluable during the Foundation Years, Specialty Training and for Consultants, Avoiding Errors in General Practice is the perfect guide to help tackle the professional and emotional challenges of life as a GP.

Kitchen Boy

By: Jenny Hobbs

Luck matters. Life is chancy. Springbok legend, war hero, thriving businessman - that was JJ Kitchen, known to all as Kitchen Boy. His was a life as large as a sports stadium, as thrilling as baling out of a burning war plane. Now he lies dead in his coffin in a Durban cathedral and his life is relived as funeral goers remember a glowing Natal childhood, the thunder of the rugby field, the joy and sorrows of family. But at the core of the man remained, to the end, the memory of WWII and how it could reduce even the bravest of men. The funeral draws to a close, but in the hearts of one of the pall-bearers, Kitchen Boy's shameful secret lives on.

Family, Entrepreneurship and Service

Count Hassanali R. Dedhar of Eldoret

By: Jenny Jina,Altaf Jina

Family, Entrepreneurship, and Service: Count Hassanali R. Dedhar of Eldoret is the biography of Count Hassanali R. Dedhar (1900–1978), an entrepreneur in Eldoret, Kenya. After migrating from Zanzibar to Eldoret in search of a better life and opportunities, Hassanali marries and opens a small shop. This modest life is only the beginning of a grander adventure. Composed from interviews, research, and personal anecdotes, this biography details the social and cultural histories of Eldoret, the Ismaili community, and one extensive family from India to East Africa to Canada. The book is a beautiful blend of research, interviews, and memories. Many of the recollections, facts, and historical background are poignant and continue to be relevant. Including first- and second-hand accounts contextualizes the history of the times and places discussed. It also shows the consequences of history for real people. The history is also layered. Sometimes, the focus is political and societal, other times it’s familial and sociological. The specific details and descriptions of daily life, customs, and cultures engages readers. The pictures are beautiful and bring the stories alive. Like the specific descriptions, these have an immersive element to them. These also give the reader a sense that because many of these images are from personal, familial collections, they wouldn’t be able to see these pictures elsewhere unless they read the book.

Restorative Cities

urban design for mental health and wellbeing

By: Jenny Roe,Layla McCay

Overcrowding, noise and air pollution, long commutes and lack of daylight can take a huge toll on the mental well-being of city-dwellers. With mental healthcare services under increasing pressure, could a better approach to urban design and planning provide a solution? The restrictions faced by city residents around the world during the COVID-19 pandemic has brought home just how much urban design can affect our mental health – and created an imperative to seize this opportunity. Restorative Cities explores a new way of designing cities, one which places mental health and wellness at the forefront. Establishing a blueprint for urban design for mental health, it examines a range of strategies – from sensory architecture to place-making for creativity and community – and brings a genuinely evidence-based approach that will appeal to designers and planners, health practitioners and researchers alike - and provide compelling insights for anyone who cares about how our surroundings affect us. Written by a psychiatrist and public health specialist, and an environmental psychologist with extensive experience of architectural practice, this much-needed work will prompt debate and inspire built environment students and professionals to think more about the positive potential of their designs for mental well-being.

Face Politics

Face Politics

By: Jenny Edkins

The face is central to contemporary politics. In Deleuze and Guattari’s work on faciality we find an assertion that the face is a particular politics, and dismantling the face is also a politics. This book explores the politics of such diverse issues as images and faces in photographs and portraits; expressive faces; psychology and neuroscience; face recognition; face blindness; facial injury, disfigurement and face transplants through questions such as: What it might mean to dismantle the face, and what politics this might entail, in practical terms? What sort of a politics is it? Is it already taking place? Is it a politics that is to be desired, a better politics, a progressive politics? The book opens up a vast field of further research that needs to be taken forward to begin to address the politics of the face more fully, and to elaborate the alternative forms of personhood and politics that dismantling the face opens to view. The book will be agenda-setting for scholars located in the field of international politics in particular but cognate areas as well who want to pursue the implications of face politics for the crucial questions of subjectivity, sovereignty and personhood.
