The Healing Tradition argues that Western medicine is fundamentally flawed because it fails to provide a healing environment for both individuals and society, and indicates potential ways to correct this through an integration model of medical humanities. All health professionals and those with an interest in medical humanities will find this book valuable reading.

Medicine in the late-20th century faces a perplexing paradox. On the one hand the system of medicine that has been developed over the past two or 300 years has reached a stage of unprecedented technological success, but on the other hand, the health care policies of those developed countries from which it has been derived are faltering and under such severe strain as to be facing serious challenges almost everywhere. This study develops a critique of western medicine aimed at addressing this issue, based on the proposition that any system of medicine must necessarily embody a mysterious quality, involving an all-encompassing element of indeterminancy and so of uncertainty. The role of mystery must be wholeheartedly acknowledged if the current mistakes and problems of western medicine are to be resolved and understood, so that more plausible moral and scientific foundations can be established.

SoC design has seen significant advances in the decade and Arm-based silicon has often been at the heart of this revolution. Today, entire systems including processors, memories, sensors and analogue circuitry are all integrated into one single chip (hence "System-on-Chip" or SoC). The aim of this textbook is to expose aspiring and practising SoC designers to the fundamentals and latest developments in SoC design and technologies using examples of Arm(R) Cortex(R)-A technology and related IP blocks and interfaces. The entire SoC design process is discussed in detail, from memory and interconnects through to validation, fabrication and production. A particular highlight of this textbook is the focus on energy efficient SoC design, and the extensive supplementary materials which include a SystemC model of a Zynq chip. This textbook is aimed at final year undergraduate students, master students or engineers in the field looking to update their knowledge. It is assumed that readers will have a pre-existing understanding of RTL, Assembly Language and Operating Systems. For those readers looking for a entry-level introduction to SoC design, we recommend our Fundamentals of System-on-Chip Design on Arm Cortex-M Microcontrollers textbook.

This title addresses the most important aspect of anaesthetic training - learning in the operating suite. The information is clearly presented and can be easily incorporated into the practice of clinical anaesthesia. The practical guidance provided, from organising the department, assessing competence, teaching practical procedures or organising simulator sessions, is based on many years of experience. There are chapters devoted to the issues of portfolio-based training and the use of mentoring and appraisal. The place, and effective use, of medical simulation, either low fidelity systems in local hospitals or the high fidelity centres in major educational units, is clarifed by an international team of experts.
