In this issue of Pediatric Clinics of North America, guest editor Dr. Margaret R. Moon brings her considerable expertise to the topic of Everyday Ethics in the Clinical Practice of Pediatrics and Young Adult Medicine. Conflicting moral obligations abound in pediatric medicine; competence in identifying and managing ethical concerns is integral to competence in pediatrics. Because most of pediatric care occurs in the outpatient setting, ethical issues arise often in routine clinical practice. This first-ever issue is devoted to medical ethics for the pediatrician, keeping in mind the rights and obligations of the physician, patient, and parent, as well as an understanding of widely accepted principles of medical ethics. 
Contains 11 practice-oriented topics including practical ethics for pediatricians; shared decision making in pediatrics; pediatrician as advocate and protector: balancing interests of children vs parents; collaborating with families on goals of care in a setting of medical complexity; and more. 
Provides in-depth clinical reviews on everyday ethics in the clinical practice of pediatrics and young adult medicine, offering actionable insights for clinical practice. 
Presents the latest information on this timely, focused topic under the leadership of experienced editors in the field. Authors synthesize and distill the latest research and practice guidelines to create clinically significant, topic-based reviews.

This accessible and clearly-structured book offers a comprehensive insight into the methods and principles of epidemiological study alongside an analysis of the broad context in which epidemiological work is undertaken. Chapters on sources of epidemiological data, on epidemiological study designs and on basic statistical measures for epidemiological studies are used to introduce the reader to the traditional underpinnings of epidemiological work. Attention then shifts to a wider canvas. Consideration is given to the critical reading of epidemiological research both as a way of demonstrating how different aspects of epidemiological study come together in published work and as the basis for a discussion of the centrality of epidemiological research in the development of evidence-based health care. The key facets of evidence-based health care are assessed. A more discursive and critical assessment of epidemiology is also presented in which attention is drawn to the need to develop alternative epidemiologies which draw on lay knowledge and recognise the socio-political context of factors influencing health status. The book concludes with a description of the everyday practice of epidemiology in a UK health authority context.

SKIN DEEP The first time Evan Claymore saw her, she was lying in a hospital, swathed in bandages. He only glimpsed her eyes, but they were enough. He was captivated. Never in Anna Harrison's life had a man looked at her this way. But she was no fool. When the bandages came off, revealing her scarred face, Evan's tender expression would be transformed into revulsion. Then Anna would be alone again. But just when Evan's gentle attentions made her dare to believe in miracles, her world shattered. Because Anna had discovered that the one man who'd shown her passion was the one man she had every reason to hate.

A lifetime ago, Barbara had longed for the refuge of her husband's arms. Now too many secrets and nightmares lay between them, and danger was closing in. She had to get away again, but Zack wouldn't let her go. And she wasn't strong enough to resist what his slightest touch would make her want.

Richard, with the help of a prosecuting attorney, rescues Lexi from her captors. Now the real quest begins. Months before, Richard had gone to South America to rescue his stepbrother. Lexi hadn't wanted him to go. He and his rescued brother were in a plane crash, with both men sustaining serious injuries. When he returned, Lexi was gone.

When Richard discovered that their joint banking account was seriously depleted, he believed that Lexi had indeed left him.

So Richard wants to know why. Why did his happy marriage dissolve in his absence? Why did Lexi leave? Take his money? Self-abort their child? Check herself into a psychiatric facility?

Or did she?
