England’s country houses have for centuries been where the rich
and grand families have displayed their wealth and status. Today,
England is still well endowed with these houses although many of
them are now popular visitor attractions instead of private homes
but there also many houses which have disappeared over the years.
Some have been demolished as they could no longer be sustained due
to the changes in social habits, surrounding development or because
of the cost of repairs or death duties; others have been lost
through fire, requisitioning, decay and rot. In this book Ian
Greaves examines the lost country houses of the North East of
England in the historic counties of Northumberland and Durham,
which includes Tyne and Wear. Some of these houses are now covered
by new housing, others may have a few scanty remains in the
landscape, but in this book the once vibrant life of these houses
and their significance in the region is evoked once again. This
fascinating picture of an important but often forgotten part of the
history of North East England over the centuries will be of
interest to all those who live in the region or know it well.

A pocket-sized self-test book designed for junior doctors. It
features not only multiple choice questions, but also case
histories, questions on ECGs, data interpretation, x-ray and
picture questions. The range of subjects covered is comprehensive
and the answers informative and unambiguous. Designed for junior
doctors, Self Assessment in Accident and Emergency Medicine
features not only MCQs but also case histories, questions on ECGs,
data interpretation, X-ray and picture questions. The range of
subjects covered is comprehensive, covering all the common problems
encountered in the Accident and Emergency Department. Also included
are the rarer conditions which many inexperienced doctors find
difficult to diagnose. This entertaining and informative guide
provides a convenient way of aquiring information and testing
knowledge for all doctors working in A&E. It will also become

This new book provides evidence based guidelines for the immediate
clinical management of major trauma.It has been written by
clinicians with many years of trauma experience, and endorsed as
authoritative by Trauma Care (UK). The UK now has highly effective
trauma systems. Clinical developments include the introduction of
damage control resuscitation, tranexamic acid, blood product
resuscitation, novel hybrid resuscitation and an emphasis on the
control of major external haemorrhage as part of a new ABCDE
approach. Consequently, more individuals with major trauma are
surviving than ever before. Optimal pre-hospital care is essential
for improved survival rates and reduced morbidity.
Many, if not most, of the recent improvements in trauma care in
civilian practice have developed from military experience. The
British Defence Medical Services have been recognised as providers
of exemplary health care. Although there will is an emphasis on
trauma, this book also captures lessons from internal medicine and
infectious disease, ethics (for example dealing with detainees - a
particularly controversial subject), human factors, mental health
issues and rehabilitation.Military Medicine provides the evidence
and context for these innovations, and its unique and important
account will be of interest to both military and civilian
practitioners alike.

Fully updated for a second edition, the Oxford Handbook of
Pre-hospital Care is the invaluable guide to providing high-quality
care in a pre-hospital environment. Evidence-based and reflecting
new developments in regulation and practice, this second edition is
designed to provide key information for all immediate care
practitioners, including doctors, paramedics, emergency medical
technicians, and community responders. The text has been
cross-referenced with the Joint Royal Colleges Ambulance Liaison
Committee (JRCALC) handbook to ensure full clinical relevance.
Reflecting the major advances in delivery of pre-hospital care,
including the greater survival benefits for heart attacks and major
trauma when delivering patients directly to higher levels of care,
the evolution of the paramedic role into critical care paramedics,
roadside rapid sequence induction of anaesthesia, and the
introduction of mechanical chest compression devices, this new
edition is the ideal companion for those involved in delivering
pre-hospital care. It also links to relevant online databases and
mobile apps that can assist with calculations, and contains key
algorithms and formulae to ensure good care. The Oxford Handbook of
Pre-hospital Care is the comprehensive quick-reference guide to all
medical and trauma conditions regularly encountered in the
immediate care setting.

'Do you sometimes think that you might wish that you were a
national treasure, like Alan Bennett?' 'I'm rather glad I'm not.
I'm quite pleased to be what I think I am, which is a sort of
national liability.' Over the course of seven decades, Jonathan
Miller has been at the forefront of developments in theatre, opera,
comedy, philosophy and scientific debate. This new collection
brings together the very best of his acerbic writing. In keeping
with Miller's grasshopper mind, One Thing and Another leaps from
discussions of human behaviour, atheism, satire, cinema and
television, to analysis of the work of M. R. James, Lewis Carroll,
Charles Dickens and Truman Capote, by way of reflections on
directing Shakespeare, Chekhov, Olivier and opera. A celebrated
conversationalist, the book also features a selection of key
interviews focusing on his working method. Jonathan Miller is
internationally celebrated as one of the last great public
intellectuals. Read One Thing and Another to find out why.
