“This book is a must read for those wanting to understand, design and improve our approach to workforce knowledge in dementia care.†Paul Edwards, Director of Clinical Services, Dementia UK “Its person-centred, theory and practice-based approaches to learning make it an essential book for everyone involved in the delivery, review and commissioning of dementia education." Dr Anna Jack-Waugh, Senior Lecturer in Dementia, Senior Fellow HEA, Alzheimer Scotland Centre for Policy, and Practice, the University of the West of Scotland, UK “A relevant, innovative, and important book that can underpin better education and training in dementia care.†Jesper Bøgmose, Associate Professor, Cand. Cur., Faculty of Health, University College Copenhagen, Denmark In the last twenty years the evidence-base for how to provide person-centred care for people with dementia has grown significantly. Despite this until recently there has been little evidence as to how to provide training and education for the dementia workforce. This book provides an evidence-based practical resource for people intending to develop, deliver, review, or commission education and training for the dementia workforce. Throughout, the book: • Considers the importance of informal routes and mechanisms for workforce development • Examines the importance of context and setting conditions for successful implementation of training at individual, service and organisational level • Contains up-to-date international research evidence, case studies and vignettes Education and Training in Dementia Care: A Person-Centred Approach is an accessible text aimed at all levels of prior experience, from those studying and working in health and social care services and private and third sector organisations who are responsible for the training and development of their staff, to commissioners of training or those who wish to take advice to inform their practice. The Reconsidering Dementia Series is an interdisciplinary series published by Open University Press that covers contemporary issues to challenge and engage readers in thinking deeply about the topic. The dementia field has developed rapidly in its scope and practice over the past ten years and books in this series will unpack not only what this means for the student, academic and practitioner, but also for all those affected by dementia. Series Editors: Dr Keith Oliver and Professor Dawn Brooker MBE.

Isabelle Latham is Researcher-in-Residence for Hallmark Care Homes, UK and Honorary Senior Research Fellow for the Association for Dementia Studies at the University of Worcester, UK. Sarah Jane Smith is a Reader in Dementia Research at Leeds Beckett University, UK.

Two classic Doctor Who adventures set on the planet of Peladon, starring Jon Pertwee as the Third Doctor, with Katy Manning as his companion in the first story and Elisabeth Sladen in the second. In the four-parter 'The Curse of Peladon' (1972), the Doctor (Pertwee) finally seems to have escaped his exile to Earth when he manages to transport Jo (Manning) in the Tardis to the planet Peladon. The pair are mistaken for Earth delegates at a conference to decide whether Peladon should join the Galactic Federation, and discover that someone is attempting to use the legendary royal beast of Aggador to trigger off a war. In the six-parter 'The Monster of Peladon' (1974), the Tardis arrives on the Planet of Peladon half a century after the Doctor's first visit. The planet has now become of great tactical importance because of its focal position between warring factions.

Also on the planet are the Sisterhood of the Flame, who believe that the Doctor has been sent by the Time Lords to steal their Elixir of life. The Doctor must convince the Sisters of his good intentions and prevent Solon from returning Morbius to life.
Two classic Doctor Who adventures, one from the 1970s and one from the 1980s, both featuring those sinister humanoids the Cybermen. In 'Revenge of the Cybermen' (1975), the Doctor (Tom Baker), Sarah Jane (Elisabeth Sladen) and Harry (Ian Marter) return to the space station Nerva (from 'The Ark in Space') to recover the TARDIS. They discover the crew decimated by a strange plague, to which Sarah falls prey. The Doctor realises that the plague is part of a plot by the Cybermen to destroy Voga, the planet of gold - gold being the only thing which is lethal to them. At the same time the Vogans are planning to destroy the Cybermen with their Skystriker rocket. The three-part adventure 'Silver Nemesis' (1988) was made to celebrate Dr Who's 25th anniversary. A statue, blasted into space 350 years ago, crashes into Earth in the core of a meteor. The Doctor (Baker) and his assistant Ace (Sophie Aldred) must fight two armies from different time periods, a regiment from 1988 and a battallion of soldiers from 2688, whilst guarding the statue from the clutches of the Cybermen.
The Doctor (Tom Baker) and Sarah Jane return for a visit to Earth, only to discover that a wave of evil Mandragora energy has hitched a ride on the TARDIS and is now being used to plunge mankind back into the dark age. They have to thwart not only the murderous count, but also prevent the mad monk Heironymous and the Cult of Demnos from unleashing the Mandragora Helix on mankind.
The Doctor is on a mission, travelling back to the middle ages to locate some missing scientists. He is, however, seriously inconvenienced when he meets a Sontaran warrior. Jon Pertwee stars.
