English in Medicine is a course for doctors, medical students and other medical professionals who have to communicate with patients and their relatives and with medical colleagues. Each of the seven units focuses on one area of doctor-patient communication, from history taking and examination to diagnosis and treatment. The course does not require specialist knowledge of medicine on the part of the teacher. It develops all four skills - speaking, listening, reading and writing - and there is a wide variety of activities to engage the learner. The Third Edition has been updated to take account of developments in medicine and the impact of new information technology. It is also now in full colour.
This book for intermediate and above students includes authentic texts from textbooks, journals, reference works and study guides. Study Reading is a course for learners of intermediate level or above who need to develop their reading skills for study or work purposes. The book is divided into three parts. Part 1 introduces basic reading skills. Part 2 is theme based, with texts from a variety of disciplines, and aims to extend the skills introduced in Part 1. Part 3 covers the reading skills required for project, dissertation and thesis work. Study Reading encourages learners to reflect on their current reading strategies. By doing a variety of task-based, problem-solving activities, learners are encouraged to refine their reading strategies through exposure to the ideas of others.
