trainers, college students, and laypersons for the medical
emergencies they may one day face in the field. The Seventh Edition

Medical Responder, Seventh Edition incorporates current medical
concepts to ensure students understand assessment and treatment
approaches that will help patients in the field. Clear Application
to Real-World Medical Response. Each chapter includes four
realistic case studies that challenge students to think critically
and analytically and apply what they've learned. The Voices of
Experience boxes further connect the chapter's key concepts to the
real world. Concept Reinforcement. The Seventh Edition is built on
the premise that students need a solid foundation in the basics
followed by appropriate reinforcement. For example, the Patient
Assessment chapter fully details every step of the patient
assessment process. Each medical and trauma chapter then revisits
this process and discusses elements of patient assessment that may
require extra attention when presented with particular emergencies.

Between 1989 and 1991 several of Shakespeare's tragedies were
performed in the central hall of Broadmoor Hospital. This book sets
these important events on record. It offers insights into the
impact of such drama, in such a setting, upon actors and audience.
It includes interviews with the directors and the actors playing
the title roles, as well as a description of the hospital and its
community of patients and staff. The performances were given by
actors from The Royal Shakespeare Company (Hamlet and Romeo and
Juliet), The Royal National Theatre (King Lear) and the Wilde
Community Theatre Company, a local amateur drama group (Measure for
Measure). An account is given of `workshops' which took place after
the performances. And a collage of comment, by actors and audience,
is presented as a stream of corporate consciousness. The final
section of the book has a more academic timbre, including chapters
on performance and projective possibilities, the nature and scope
of dramatherapy, and contributions on the place of drama in
custodial settings by specialists from a variety of disciplines.
