of health care professionals and students. It encourages autonomous
learning and helps develop critical analytical skills ... Each
chapter follows a logical progression using key objectives which
relate to a range of activities and up to date evidenced based
sources of information. The range of depth and breadth of material
is contemporary and as such should meet the academic, managerial
and clinical background of the reader." Helen Matthews, Senior
Lecturer in Health and Community Care, University of West London,
UK"This text represents a useful, well-pitched contribution ... The
book is densely packed but skilfully written to feel comfortable
for the reader; challenging in places but never to the extent to
discourage engagement." Jane Thomas, Acting Head of College of
Human and Health Sciences, Swansea University, UKDo you have
