Book Synopsis The NHS - Beginning, Middle and End? by : John Marks
Download or read book The NHS - Beginning, Middle and End? written by John Marks and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Marks is something of a national treasure. Warm, funny, passionate, opinionated and occasionally contrary, he is a man whose life for more than 40 years marched in beat with that of the National Health Service. There is scarcely a medical issue or controversy in which John Marks was not involved. Abortion law reform, the doctors' 1970s revolt against the General Medical Council, the foundation of the Royal College of General Practitioners, countless NHS reorganizations, and the bloody battle over NHS pay beds and the pay of junior doctors are just a sample.Then there was the fierce, principled battle over how the medical profession and the public should respond to the terror of a new disease - AIDS. And the great war that was fought over the Conservatives introduction of market forces into the NHS in the late 1980s and early 1990s - an approach to running the NHS that lives on, reincarnated, under the current Labor government.In all of these John Marks played more than a walk-on part. In many he was a principal actor. For anyone wanting fully to understand the BMA's role in all this, this book is thus required reading. But it is much more than just a dry history of times past. It is laced with anecdote, from the horrifying to the hilarious, and on to high politics. John Marks' account of his life and times provides the tale of a warm, human, liberal and occasionally buccaneering man whose passion for life and causes leaves even those who do not always agree with him eager to count him among their friends.

What impact can genuine, individually financially-empowered choice have on effective funding, purchasing, delivery, and outcomes? How can a genuine market grow and thrive? How can the quest for choice include the large numbers of NHS and social care staff on whom success depends? The book urges individual financial empowerment, through a life-long health savings account for all NHS and social services.

Book Synopsis GPs, Politics and Medical Professional Protest in Britain, 1880–1948 by : Chris Locke
Download or read book GPs, Politics and Medical Professional Protest in Britain, 1880–1948 written by Chris Locke and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-11-08 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book charts the journey of British General Practitioners (GPs) towards professional self-realisation through the development of a political consciousness manifested in a series of bruising encounters with government. GPs are an essential part of the social fabric of modern Britain but as a group have always felt undervalued, clashing with successive governments over the terms on which they offered their services to the public. Explaining the background to these disputes and the motives of GPs from a sociological perspective, this research casts new light on some defining moments in the creation of the modern British state, from National Health Insurance to the National Health Service, and the history of the British medical profession. It examines these events from the point of view of the professionals intimately involved in and affected by them, using both established sources, like Ministry of Health records, an in-depth analysis of rarely studied records of professional bodies, and previously unresearched archive material. The result is a fascinating account of conflict and cooperation, and of heroic, and less-than-heroic, defiance of political authority, involving interactions between complex personalities and competing ideologies. Scholarly yet readable, this book will be of interest to the general reader as much as to medical practitioners and historians.
Download or read book Messengers written by Stephen Martin and published by PublicAffairs. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the age of fake news, understanding who we trust and why is essential in explaining everything from leadership to power to our daily relationships." -Sinan Aral We live in a world where proven facts and verifiable data are freely and widely available. Why, then, are self-confident ignoramuses so often believed over thoughtful experts? And why do seemingly irrelevant details such as a person's appearance or financial status influence whether or not we trust what they are saying, regardless of their wisdom or foolishness? Stephen Martin and Joseph Marks compellingly explain how in our uncertain and ambiguous world, the messenger is increasingly the message. We frequently fail, they argue, to separate the idea being communicated from the person conveying it, explaining why the status or connectedness of the messenger has become more important than the message itself. Messengers influence business, politics, local communities, and our broader society. And Martin and Marks reveal the forces behind the most infuriating phenomena of our modern era, such as belief in fake news and how presidents can hawk misinformation and flagrant lies yet remain.

Book Synopsis Dramatherapy with Children, Young People and Schools by : Lauraine Leigh
Download or read book Dramatherapy with Children, Young People and Schools written by Lauraine Leigh and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-08-21 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dramatherapy with Children, Young People and Schools is the first book to specifically evaluate the unique value of dramatherapy in the educational environment. A variety of highly experienced dramatherapists, educational psychologists and childhood experts discuss the benefits to the children and young people, and also in relation to the involvement of teachers, the multi-disciplinary team and families. This professional book offers a panoramic view to explain how through dramatherapy children and young people develop their communication skills, sociability and their actual desire to learn. Detailed case studies demonstrate individual successes in youngsters experiencing a range of emotional difficulties and psychological needs. These studies include: conquering a fear of maths; violent behaviour transformed into educational achievement; safe expression of feelings for a sexually abused child; and where children are diagnosed with mental health disorders such as ADHD and ODD, where the benefits of dramatherapy with children and families are carefully described and evaluated, suggesting that this therapeutic discipline can achieve positive outcomes. The practical advice and inspirational results included here promote a future direction of integration and collaboration of school staff, multi-disciplinary teams and families. Education and equality are high on the agenda, and the function of dramatherapy is not just as a treatment, but as an economically viable and valuable preventive therapy.

Book Synopsis Measuring Your Media Profile by : Dermot H. McKeone

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dermot McKeone's book shows how, with the aid of today's powerful technology, the impact an organization makes in the media can be monitored and evaluated - against the competition if necessary. Using examples and case studies of high profile companies, he describes the various methods available for analysing media coverage (both printed and broadcast) and discusses the costs and benefits involved. He explains how to identify target audiences and choose appropriate messages, demonstrating how media coverage translates into corporate image in the marketplace. Analysing and evaluating media coverage, argues Mr McKeone, should be part of a systematic corporate communications programme, and it is this strategic perspective that makes his book so valuable.

Book excerpt: ***BUSINESS BOOK AWARDS 2022 SHORTLISTED TITLE*** Now more than ever, the scientific and medical community is under the microscope and in front of the media. Science matters, and in a post-truth world it’s more important than ever for scientists and physicians to be heard. But there’s a challenge. To get people to listen, you can’t communicate in writing alone anymore. You need to speak up and be seen - on stage, online, and on camera. To do this well you need to master the art of influential speaking, which is something you weren’t taught at university or medical school. This book teaches you how to become a compelling scientific speaker so that you can put your message across with confidence and clarity, both online and in person. It’s written by a speaking coach with 25 years of experience in science communications. Part One shows how speaking can help you to win the war of attention, benefiting both your field and your career. Part Two explains how to craft your scientific message in a way that connects with your audience and achieves your goal. Including how to be memorable, handle the Q&A, and communicate risk. Part Three gives you a tool kit for speaking with energy and conviction in all types of situations. These include virtual channels, which are particularly important in the post-COVID era. Jo Browning is the Founder and Managing Director of Filshie Browning Associates, and its Principle Consultant. She has 25 years of experience in verbal communication skills, and helps scientists and physicians to improve their content, competence, and confidence, so that they can communicate with impact and authority. This enables them to enhance their reputations and build more effective relationships with both their peers and others.
Book Synopsis Clinical Leadership Development by : John Edmonstone
Download or read book Clinical Leadership Development written by John Edmonstone and published by eBook Partnership. This book was released on 2005-02-04 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has been stimulated by the author's continuing work as a programme tutor on the national Medical Leadership development programmes run through the Centre for Health Planning & Management at the University of Keele, together with three years part-time working with the Centre for the Development of Healthcare Policy & Practice at the University of Leeds. The experience of working with colleagues in these settings, together with his own consultancy work, has convinced the author of the centrality of clinical leadership to the success of health care organisations - and therefore also of the need to develop that leadership. While aware that much excellent work was going on, it was also clear that this emerging good practice needed to be brought together into a single publication which captured the innovation and challenge in as comprehensive a way as possible. This book is for leaders at all levels in the NHS, spanning board and executive levels to directorate, network and front line leadership roles. It is also of value to those involved in leadership development, education and research.
