Each year, millions of lambs and tens of thousands of ewes die at lambing, but it is uneconomical to call a vet to each difficult lambing, and each sick lamb or ewe. This practical guide explains, in simple terms, how much of this loss could be prevented, by providing a basic understanding of the problems lambs and ewes can suffer, and the techniques used to prevent or alleviate them. Practical Lambing and Lamb Care, now in its second edition, is a comprehensive reference manual covering each step of the lambing process and the techniques which may be needed at each stage, in the treatment and care of newborn lambs and ewes

Personal injury litigation deals not only with sudden accidents (eg, road injuries) but also long-term medical conditions (eg, occupational diseases) and is a growing area of the law. This book provides readers with up-to-date knowledge of the main conditions involved in personal injury litigation, including the natural history of the disorder, prediction of outcome, and disabilities likely to be encountered. The book also considers the role of the expert report from the medical and legal perspectives, and quantum of damages considering life expectancy, employment, care requirements, housing and aids.

Risk management provides a system by which project risks can be identified, assessed and managed. There are a number of texts on the theory of risk management and on individual risk techniques. This book is unique, however, in dealing with the practical implementation of risk analysis in project management decisions. The book is divided into five sections: (1) a description of risk management and decision-making in the context of a construction project; (2) the human dimension; (3) tools and techniques available to the risk analyst; (4) the problems of procurement and finance; and (5) the practical application of risk analysis, including the principles of risk modelling and simulation, together with two case studies. Written by a group of academics and practitioners, the book offers practical guidance for anyone faced with problems of project risk management in practice.

With the evolution of evidence based medicine, GPs are under increasing pressure to extrapolate the latest trial data into clinical practice. Gastroenterology is one of the few areas where there is scarcity of accepted management guidelines. This small volume attempts to redress the balance.  Authored by a strong team of academic GPs and specialists, it sets out a series of clinical protocols for conditions such as gastro-oesophagael reflux disease (GORD) peptic ulcer, pancreatic disease and inflamatory bowel disease. Brevity is the key to the books usefulness and it will focus primarily on the management of these conditions from the primary care perspective, giving advice on referral where appropriate.

What is globalization? Why is it the source of such intense controversy? Is it creating a more disorderly world or can globalization be tamed? In the aftermath of September 11th, these questions have acquired a new and even greater sense of urgency.This short book provides a key to understanding one of the most important intellectual and political debates of our times. The authors interrogate the evidence about globalization and assess global trends. Issues of governance, culture, the economy, patterns of inequality and global ethics are discussed in relation to the contending claims and counterclaims of the principal positions in the globalization debate: the globalizers and anti-globalizers. Held and McGrew reflect on the central questions of political life posed by the great globalization debate, namely: who rules, in whose interests, to what ends, and by what means? They conclude by proposing a new political agenda for the twenty-first century – a global covenant of cosmopolitan social democracy. This book is an excellent guide for all those intrigued, confused or simply baffled by globalization and its impact.

The Blueprints Series has been developed to enable the reader to review the core material in each discipline quickly and efficiently. The topics for each subject were chosen from an analysis of over 2000 representative review questions from the USMLE Steps 2 &amp; 3. The book is not meant to be comprehensive, but rather a composition of the "high-yield" topics that consistently appear on these exams. The material in these books is presented either as a workup of a symptom or as a discussion of a particular disease or pathological process. This format has been chosen to compliment the style of questions on the USMLE Steps 2 &amp; 3 which are now crafted into clinical vignettes. This unique series of books will be equally as useful to all medical students during their clerkships and sub-internships.
