Understanding Infection Prevention and Control is a comprehensive compendium of infection prevention and control (IPC) processes which can be applied to all countries.

This book provides healthcare and legal practitioners and students at all levels with the theory and practical application necessary to understand and apply bioethics, human rights and health law to their present and future work. The topics of bioethics, human rights and health law are part of the core curriculum for all students in Health Sciences in South Africa. Bioethics, Health Law and Human Rights: Principles and Practice, therefore, comes at no better time.

As the book is a guide, it does not deal exhaustively with the topics discussed. Instead, it aims to give healthcare and legal practitioners some general guidelines which it is hoped will be of practical use to them.

Occupational Health: Management and practice for health professionals explains the relationship between health and work as a two-way process.

This book is aimed at those completing the occupational health component of a basic healthcare programme or pursuing a career in occupational health practice. An update is needed as the research and legislation is dated and there are new developments in the field of environmental health.

The previous edition was published in 2016.
