Much MRI literature assumes that the reader is conversant with the specialised terms that have developed with the subject. For beginners this is often not the case, and this false assumption may hinder the reader's assimilation of information. The aim of this glossary is to explain these terms in plain language without assuming that the reader has a Ph.D. in physics!

Most postgraduate examinations now include radiographic interpretation. This may be presented as a slide show of as a film-viewing session. Radiographs and other imaging modalities are also used ubiquitously in the viva' section of most such examinations including those of the American Boards and professional societies and universities worldwide. This series of Clinical Film Viewing will assist candidates to prepare for this process. Each book examines a particular system or technique followed by profusely illustrated cases typical of those presented in postgraduate examinations.

"I was expecting another trip to the Scottish Isles and to the Faerie realm. The Witch "trilogy" made this realm all so real. This book however is so much more. Goddard delves into the realms of MR James and Edgar Allen Po and in this reviewer's humble opinion is as good as or better than both of those other masters of the horror genre. This is a spine tingling disturbing and truly scary book. I urge you to read this great book. Brilliant Gothic tale handled by a true story telling master." - JJ Mann

Is lying a sin? Is Theresa May a robot or a shape changing lizard? Is there such a thing as an inalienable human right? What will happen if Jacob Rees-Mogg does embrace his freedom and stand on his own two feet? These questions and many more are addressed in Paul R Goddards latest book, Fake News, or to give the book its full title An Approximately True Analysis of Fake News. The book is a short paperback packed full of scurrilous ideas and cartoons. It is subtitled The Book of Lying and Propaganda due to the fact that fake news has been with the human race ever since its inception. This book explains why we lie, suggests ways to spot lies and describes the history of propaganda and spin. It touches on difficult subjects such as fakery in medicine, science, politics and religion and is illustrated throughout by Goddards self-penned cartoons. From the Foreword by Chris Beetles: This book is worthless and subversive and deserves to be shredded. Resist temptation to give it as a jolly present to your friends All right, all right, have it your way enjoy this very funny book if you must, read it three times a day after meals, but dont say I didnt warn you when you feel a whole lot better.

Change is an exciting parable of magical realism. The story is a fantasy set in Bristol and the South West of England and combines a police search for missing people and modern day fairy tales. It imagines a world in which the spirits of the rivers and seas could fight back against us and our despoiling ways.

This anthology is an expanded version of the Number 1 worldwide Amazon download e-book of the same title with many extra illustrations and nine more poems.

The 2nd edition of PANDEMIC (Clinical Press 2021) updates the history of plagues and provides extra chapters concentrating on the origin of the Covid-19 pandemic, treatment, vaccination and the effect of lockdowns. As one furloughed doctor said the first edition sorted out my mind. We are very lucky to be living in the 21st century and comparison with the many plagues of the past puts the Covid-19 pandemic in its place. The second edition continues this cathartic exercise and puts into some order the origin, the prevention and the treatment of the condition. Historical records show that people who work with viruses are often prone to accidental escapes from their laboratories like the one giving origin to COVID-19. The lessons of history are heavily in favour of the lab-leak theory compared with the now-discredited theory of zoonotic origin. Interspersed with the serious history are true personal anecdotes and a few ridiculous cartoons. The author points out: Laughing at the things we fear is one of the best ways of putting those fears into perspective.

Witch Schism & Chaos? is the third and final book in The Witch, The Dragon and The Angel Trilogy. A Lady is being held captive. A dozen different people and beings seeom to think that they are each Jimmy Scott. Which one is the genuine item and will the right one win through to free the captive? Meanwhile something is going very wrong in Downing Street..... Can the Scotts save the world for the third time?

Paul R Goddard, a retired consultant radiologist, has taken a Swift-like move and penned a slim satirical cartoon book. A former President of various medical societies including the Radiology Section of the Royal Society of Medicine, the Bristol Medico Chirurgical Society and the MRRA (UK), Professor Goddard is no stranger to controversy. His witty cartoons will cause much merriment amongst the workers in the National Elf Service, apart, perhaps, from some of the less discerning management and political acolytes (the more discerning will undoubtedly also enjoy the book!). There is an Elf Service in Cloud Cuckoo Land, a place that is sometimes known as Faerie and Elfdom. It is strange how the National Elf Service seems to mirror our own wonderful NHS but is peculiarly different.....in our system the patients are not cranked in on a giant conveyor belt such that a new patient arrives even as the last is leaving the surgery....and there is no huge physical gulf between the managers and the clinical staff as management try to pull the doctors over the cliff edge onto the rocks of despair! (Are you sure? ed.) In Faerie (Cloud Cuckoo Land?) the Right Horrible Jellybean Shunt is in charge...so different from our own world but eerily similar. He seems to think that the junior dwarves (doctors?) can work ten days a week. To find out what happens you will have to either purchase the book or steal one from some unsuspecting NHS worker who has placed his copy within easy reach. This book will make a great present for anyone who works in the health services... perhaps as a birthday or Christmas gift for a real worker or as a retirement present for a higher management acolyte?
