  • Epidemiology and Public Health Medicine

    • 1 Edición
    • Norman J. Vetter + 1 más
    • Inglés
    This book will cover four of the major strands of the courses taught to medical undergraduates under the umbrella terms of epidemiology and public health. Namely mainstream epidemiology, critical appraisal of medical evidence or evidence based medicine, population based issues such as communicable disease and environmental hazard, and the provision of health care. In the new curricula, these courses tend to occur in years one or two, and are often, together with behavioural sciences and primary care, partof larger courses called something like "Human Basis of Medicine" or "Medicine and Society".Greater importance is being placed on these topics than previously, and this, together with the fashion for evidence-based medicine, will ensure that the subject has a higher exam priority for students than in the past. Currently available books tend to be biased towards epidemiology or towards public health, thus necessitating the purchase of two books rather than one, and none offers the integrated approach at alevel suitable for undergraduates which is a feature of our book.

  • Robinson's Genetics for Cat Breeders and Veterinarians

    • 4 Edición
    • Carolyn M. Vella + 3 más
    • Inglés
    The field of genetics has changed considerably since the first edition of Genetics for Cat Breeders was published in 1971. For decades the discussion of genetics was limited to observations of populations but now geneticists are beginning to look at the actual molecular mechanisms behind the traits and diseases seen in the cat.Continuing the pioneering work of the late Roy Robinson, Carolyn Vella and her team of experts have significantly expanded the scope of previous editions to produce a work which is now of equal benefit to both veterinary surgeons and cat breeders. Their aim has been to make the book more accessible and understandable whilst providing an impartial look at sometimes controversial and complex issues.The book retains the most important information published in previous editions and also incorporates some of the continuing work done by Roy Robinson prior to his death. A considerable amount of new information has been added in order to provide both breeders and veterinarians with the broadest possible range of information. The authors have not only reviewed the traditional sources of scientific literature and recently published studies, but have also conducted interviews with veterinarians, researchers and breeders.

  • MCQ's for the MRCP Part 1

    Infectious Disease, Haematology and Chemical Pathology
    • 1 Edición
    • D. W. Galvani + 3 más
    • Inglés
    There are plenty of MCQ books around but most combine mainstream subjects such as gastroenterology and renal medicine, which most Senior House Officers find relatively straightforward. Few MCQ books, however, focus on the subjects that many candidates find difficult those in which they are least likely to have had good clinical experience. Infectious disease, haematology and clinical chemistry are three such subjects. Candidates feel uneasy about tackling MCQs in these areas, and these questions often become the deciders leading to success or failure. This new book from Galvani et al contains 150 five-part MCQs with full answers and explanations, for these three difficult areas.
