Routine denial and the downplaying of harm should have no place in
medicine but it is an institutional attitude and policy in the UK.
The Department of Health and the MHRA play politics with people's
lives. There is no doubt that the defence and underestimation of
past harm, allows the continuation of a system which will produce
more avoidable injury in the future. The author campaigns for drug
safety and a change in the system where no one is held accountable
and the victims are left to fend for themselves.
"Pope and Bouhoutsos have written a no-nonsense and concise book
which covers a great deal of what is known about sexual intimacy
between therapists and their patients. . . . This book should be on
the must read list for all psychologists." Psychotheraphy in
Private Practice "A landmark volume in the psychotherapy
literature. This tightly written book offers something valuable to
therapists from the student level to the seasoned veteran. It
reaches a new level of information comprehensiveness and
theoretical integration." Patricia Keith-Spiegel, Former Three-Term
Chair, APA Ethics Committee "A thoroughly unique, impressively
comprehensive, and long-awaited contribution. A store-house of
information." Jay Zisken, Past President, American Psychology-Law
Society
FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF DEAR LIFE 'I am a
junior doctor. It is 4 a.m. I have run arrest calls, treated
life-threatening bleeding, held the hand of a young woman dying of
cancer, scuttled down miles of dim corridors wanting to sob with
sheer exhaustion, forgotten to eat, forgotten to drink, drawn on
every fibre of strength that I possess to keep my patients safe
from harm.' How does it feel to be spat out of medical school into
a world of pain, loss and trauma that you feel wholly ill-equipped
to handle? To be a medical novice who makes decisions which - if
you get them wrong - might forever alter, or end, a person's life?
In Your Life in My Hands, television journalist turned junior
doctor Rachel Clarke captures the extraordinary realities of life
on the NHS frontline. During the historic junior doctor strikes of
2016, Rachel was at the forefront of the campaign against the
government's imposed contract upon young doctors. Her heartfelt,
deeply personal account of life as a junior doctor in today's NHS
is both a powerful polemic on the degradation of Britain's most
vital public institution and a love letter of optimism and hope to
that same health service.
This timely Research Handbook examines sport-related research and
analysis pertaining to how the sport industry has been impacted by
the Covid-19 pandemic. Taking stock of the changes over the course
of the pandemic, it also provides key insights into how the sport
industry and its stakeholders might move forward in post-pandemic
times. Organized into six parts, the first half of the book
explores the areas of sport management, sport communication, and
sport marketing, while the final three parts analyze sport events,
sport stakeholders, and sport and society. Expert international
contributors delve into a wide array of topics related to the sport
industry including athletes, clubs, leagues, and brand and sport
management to illuminate how the pandemic has influenced these
aspects of sport. Offering a comprehensive analysis of how Covid-19
has affected the sport industry, this Research Handbook will be a
key resource for business and management scholars and advanced
students with a particular interest in sport, health, and
well-being. Its use of global case studies will also be beneficial
for sport managers and practitioners in this field.
The development of health across an individual’s life depends on
many factors, but social determinants play a vital role. This
timely Handbook simultaneously uses theoretical, descriptive,
explanatory and policy approaches to explore health inequalities
related to income, education, occupational status, social capital,
and also biological and genetic factors. World- leading experts
define and present the most prominent research topics,
perspectives, and findings in the field and pose critical questions
from within and beyond the research community. Structured into five
parts this handbook addresses theories, methods, single stages of
the life course, long-term perspectives on the whole life course,
and policies. It helps readers understand the complexity of health
sociology while also investigating important mechanisms and
solutions through which health inequalities can be reduced.
Providing a comprehensive, multi- and interdisciplinary analysis of
topics and approaches to health inequalities, this Handbook will be
an inspiring resource for researchers seeking to expand their
knowledge and tackle new research questions. Advanced students of
sociology, demography, epidemiology, public health and related
fields will also benefit.

Exploring the potential of poetry and poetic language as a means of
conveying perspectives on ageing and later life, this book examines
questions such as 'how can we understand ageing and later life?'
and 'how can we capture the ambiguities and complexities that the
experiences of growing old in time and place entail?' As poetic
language illuminates, transfigures and enchants our being in the
world, it also offers insights into the existential questions that
are amplified as we age, including the vulnerabilities and losses
that humble us and connect us. Literary gerontology and narrative
gerontology have highlighted the importance of linguistic
representations of ageing. While the former has been concerned
primarily with the analysis of published literary works, the latter
has foregrounded the individual and collective meaning making
through narrative resources in old age. There has, however, been
less interest in how poetic language, both as a genre and as a
practice, can illuminate ageing. This volume suggests a path
towards the poetics of ageing by means of presenting analyses of
published poetry on ageing written by poets from William
Shakespeare to Wallace Stevens; the use of reading and writing
poetry among ordinary people in old age; and the poetic nuances
that emerge from other literary practices and contexts in relation
to ageing - including personal poetic reflections from many of the
contributing authors. The volume brings together international
scholars from disciplinary backgrounds as diverse as cultural
psychology, literary studies, theology, sociology, narrative
medicine, cultural gerontology and narrative gerontology, and will
deploy a variety of empirical and critical methodologies to explore
how poetry and poetic language may challenge dominant discourses
and illuminate alternative understandings of ageing.
