This book has been written primarily for general practitioners; it
describes the social problems which are presented by patients to
their doctors for help and advice. The aim of the book is to help
the doctor manage these problems, both through his own
interventions and by involving or referring the patient on to other
agencies. While the more common problems have been considered in
detail, those rarely encountered have been omitted. The book also
concentrates on help available from non-medical sources, as these
will be less familiar to the general practitioner than other
medical or nursing services. There is often a close association
between social difficulties and health problems, both physical and
psychiatric. It is, there fore, vital that an attempt is made to
meet the social needs of patients in order to promote good physical
and mental health. R. H. Corney 8 Series Foreword This series of
books is designed to help general practitioners. So are other
books. What is unusual in this instance is their collect ive
authorship; they are written by specialists working at district
general hospitals. The writers derive their own experi ence from a
range of cases less highly selected than those on which textbooks
are traditionally based. They are also in a good position to pick
out topics which they see creating difficulties for the
practitioners of their district, whose personal capacities are
familiar to them; and to concentrate on contexts where mistakes are
most likely to occur."
