Legal Problems in Emergency Medicine is a small, practical book which covers a large, complex subject. It is the first book to offer practical guidance specifically for the doctor, nurse, manager, or lawyer faced with legal difficulties arising out of a medical emergency. 'Ignorance of the law is no excuse', and all professionals now require a working knowledge of the law relating to their subject. Those practising Emergency Medicine are no exception, whether casualty officers, hospital specialists, general practitioners, or nursing or paramedical staff. The first part of this book offers guidance, with examples, for those 'on the spot' in difficult situations, whilst the second part consists of a condensed but authoritative summary of the various legal topics comprising emergency medicine law. Written in plain language, it makes several complex and difficult areas of the law accessible to the legal layman-yet it does not avoid more complicated issues and is fully reference so that the truth of each statement can be validated. Readers will benefit from the extensive working knowledge of a unique team of authors: an emergency physician who has practised at the English Bar, and a practising solicitor.

This book is a report of the findings of the International Study of Schizophrenia (ISoS), Focusing on variations in the course and outcome of schizophrenic disorders, the investigation covers 14 countries in both the developed and developing world. The bulk of the volume consists of portraits of individual field research centres in each country and reports on the outcomes of these centres' schizophrenic patients. The "portrait chapters" are flanked by introductory and synoptic chapters laying out both the genealogy and design of ISoS and synthesising its major findings. Of these, the most significant conclusions: that while recovery from schizophrenia is a struggle for many patients, it is possible to achieve in terms of improved daily function and quality of life and that, with appropriate and sustained treatment, schizophrenia is largely an episodic disorder that has a favourable outcome for a significant portion of those afflicted with it. The book also includes extensive tables that present the research data, permitting further independent analysis.Recovery from Schizophrenia is unique - there is virtually nothing like it in the contemporary field of cross-cultural psychiatric epidemiology, and the massive, multinational investigations upon which it is based are not likely to be replicated any time soon in the area of mental illness. As such, this book will be a unique resource for mental health professionals, practitioners, and researchers worldwide, providing an empirically based reason for hope in the long run for persons living with schizophrenia.
