application of theory, rather than focussing heavily on scholarly
research, its content is designed to be relevant and inclusive to
all healthcare disciplines. Key points are highlighted by the
inclusion of tips from experienced teachers in each chapter, while
throughout chapters reflect contemporary concepts and key
approaches, including teaching styles, curriculum development,
e-learning, virtual learning environments, leadership and
professionalism. Teaching Made Easy, 4E will continue to benefit
everyone teaching health professionals at all levels, from general
practitioners and hospital doctors, nurses in primary and secondary
care, and professionals allied to medicine and health service
managers, and will also support the development of colleagues in
new roles such as physician associates, FCPs and newer nursing
associates.

identity balance in behavioral health. The contributors to this
collection deeply engage with identity and psychological strength
by examining race, gender, class, and context through stories,
highlighting the asset- and story-based constructs of identity.
Scholarly research and depictions within popular culture present
black males largely on the basis of their being caricatures_
entities that extend not far beyond stereotypical celluloid,
televised explanations, print articles, and selective hip-hop
commentary. Even within institutions and among individuals that are
assumed to have the best interest of the black male at center,
there is often an inability to consider them past a faux orbit of
one-dimensionality. Balance is unique in that it approaches Black
males from a well-rooted personality perspective within context and
utilizes discourse analysis in attempts at advancing identity
theory.

associated problems of definition and resolution. The third and
final part contains a selection of texts that each deal with the
impact of cyberspace crime upon specific criminal justice
processes: the police and the trial process.

'Building on the Calgary-Cambridge model Lewis Walker has outlined
some of the NLP tools that are most useful to physicians who wish
to engage their patients' physical and psychological ability to
self-heal. It is truly a pleasure to introduce a book that offers
pragmatic tools in the service of that highest calling namely the
desire to alleviate suffering and promote healing.' Ian McDermott

welcome feature is the way the author relates his message to
everyday problems and concerns that patients bring to the surgery.
It contains powerful tools for change to be used ethically and with
compassion.' John Duncan in his Foreword
Is the internet really powerful enough to enable a sixteen year old to become the biggest threat to world peace since Adolf Hitler? Are we all now susceptible to cyber-criminals who can steal from us without even having to leave the comfort of their own armchairs? These are fears which have been articulated since the popular development of the internet, yet criminologists have been slow to respond to them. Consequently, questions about what cybercrimes are, what their impacts will be and how we respond to them remain largely unanswered. Organised into three sections, this book engages with the various criminological debates that are emerging over cybercrime. The first section looks at the general problem of crime and the internet. It then describes what is understood by the term 'cybercrime' by identifying some of the challenges that they present for criminology. The second section explores the different types of cybercrime and their attendant problems. The final section contemplates some of the challenges that cybercrimes give rise to for the criminal justice system.

Since 1984, relaxed federal guidelines have allowed the natural
gas industry to become far more flexible and competitive. Once gas
pipelines were given the option of open access, the barriers to
markets and competition dissolved. The success of open access
points to the emergence and evolution of a fluid and
informationally rich network of regional markets that form today's
single national market for natural gas. A broad range of
specialists and academics in economics, regulatory economics and
economic modeling, industrial organization, and energy and natural
resources will find the implications of this work important
reading.
This work includes Foreword by David Nicholson - Chief Executive,
National Health Service of England. In the past, there has been too
little emphasis and investment made in developing leaders in
healthcare. People have become leaders without being prepared or
trained or supported in the role. Individuals need to understand
the context, the concept and models of good leadership, the
practical steps to becoming a good leader, and how to sustain the
various components of a well functioning and effective
organisation, whether that is a large NHS trust or hospital
department, a clinical group or practice team. This guide has been
written by a range of writers from organisational consultancy and
NHS backgrounds who are all experienced in developing and
supporting leaders, planning and providing education, and change
management. It is specially designed for independent learning, with
answers to frequently asked questions, self-assessment exercises
and helpful tips. "How to Succeed as a Leader" is ideal for all
healthcare professionals in (or aspiring to) leadership roles. It
also provides inspiration for academics and workplace educators,
managers and leaders in government, strategic health authorities
and workforce deaneries. 'There is constant reorganisation and a
changing culture in our health service. Good leadership is
essential to address the changes required and take others with you
so that the service can function effectively. There has been an
amateurish approach to leadership in the NHS in the past, where
people have become leaders without being prepared or trained for
the role or supported in it. This book is all about presenting you
with a practical approach to becoming a competent leader, to
prepare you to lead in a positive way and realise your
responsibilities as a leader.' From the Preface.
