This book has been written as a response to the increasing
polarisation of the public debate between science and religion. On
one side of the debate, there are the "aggressive atheists", who
claim to represent Science. On the other you have religious
fundamentalists, who amongst other things insist on the literal
truth of Scriptural writings. This view ignores a huge constituency
or people with more moderate views: scientists inspired by a sense
of wonder at what they discover in their daily work, religious
adherents who hold much more tolerant and inclusive views of the
world, or indeed agnostics who either hold no strong view or
acknowledge that they simply "don't know". Many people look to
science or religion for answers because they feel uncertain about
the future. They want nice simple answers that make them feel
secure. This book will not provide simple answers. It will try to
follow Einstein's advice that "Everything should be made as simple
as possible, but not simpler."
Software Quality: Theory and Management has been in print around
the world since 1992. After the publisher accidentally removed it
from the European market in 1998, it continued to sell well in
South East Asia and has to date sold over 10,000 copies world-wide.
Originally used with BSc and MSc students at the University of
Salford, previous editions have been used as a textbook in the UK,
Europe, North America and Asia. However, the contents of the second
edition look sadly dated by now, and even core concepts such as
development methodologies have moved on substantially. Therefore, I
have decided to produce a third edition which has been updated in
both content and method of delivery.
This book has been designed to help dentists to establish and
maintain information systems that are necessary for effective
working. It will consider the context of dentists in the UK, USA
and Canada. It tries to do at least six (almost ) impossible
things: 1. Talk about information in an interesting way. 2. Show
how information can actually be useful. 3. Explain how to get you
to love your computer. 4. Make SNODENT Codes interesting. 5. Help
practices to share meaningful information. 6. Make you smile while
reading a book about information. It includes references to
incredibly unhip comedy series such as 'The Hitch Hiker's Guide to
the Galaxy' (such as why not round off this chapter by breakfast at
Milliways, the Restaurant at the End of the Universe?). The book
assumes that you the reader are based in, or work with, a dental
practice. Each chapter includes exercises that generally require
you to have access to a dental practice.
