Safe and effective prescribing is a cornerstone of proper patient care. There has in recent years been a significant increase in the numbers of healthcare professionals able to prescribe; however, sources of drug information tend to focus on only one area of prescribing. The Oxford Handbook of Practical Drug Therapy links practical information about how to use medicines with concise details about the pharmacology of a drug, and the principles of clinical pharmacology that govern its action. The overall structure of this handbook is similar to the UK national formulary, with topics on each drug arranged broadly by therapeutic category. When a drug has several different uses, these are brought together in a single topic, allowing the reader to appreciate its full range of actions, whether therapeutic or adverse. Each drugs topic provides information in a clearly laid out and standardised form, and includes a graphical representation of the pharmacological actions of the drug, and its potential uses, practical advice on a drug's major indications, a list of common and serious adverse effects, major drug-drug interactions, practical advice on monitoring for therapeutic and adverse effects, and what to tell the patient. Teaching points throughout the text draw out pharmacological principles, so that readers can increase their basic knowledge by linking theory with practical examples. Also included are several boxes giving guidance on the approach to therapy of specific diseases an clinical problems. In some cases, algorithms for the treatment of medical emergencies are given, and this new edition features case histories throughout the text to illustrate the issues one may face in practical prescribing. The Oxford Handbook of Practical Drug Therapy brings together for the first time in a single book really practical information on safe prescribing, with the background knowledge that underpins clinical pharmacology. Fully revised with new guidance and important safety information, this book is aimed primarily at medical students and trainees, it will also be invaluable to family doctors, clinical pharmacists, and nurse prescribers.

Q: Why is your wife in a wheelchair? A: Because she can't walk. Q: Why were you ironing in the nude anyway? A: No wait, I can explain... Q: Why would this happen to you? A: Why wouldn't it? People ask the silliest things. But for Jade and John Reynolds it's the silence surrounding disability that's the strangest of all. When Jade unexpectedly suffered from a rare condition which left her paralysed and in a wheelchair at the age of twelve, she never imagined that she'd one day meet her husband John and that together they would take to social media to dispel the stigma surrounding disability, one story at a time. From questions about suffering and sex to family and faith, Jade and John speak honestly and humorously about life as an inter-able couple. And here, they bring together the big questions (and big jokes) that have made them so popular online onto the page in a debut book that will help you reframe your hardship into reasons to hope. It's time to discover that no matter what life throws at you, you are truly, able to laugh.

This illustrated biography reviews Citroen's life and work and catalogues the cars he produced, in order to restore his reputation as one of the most progressive and imaginative characters in the history of the motor car.The book recalls his privileged childhood as the son of a prosperous Jewish immigrant in Paris during the late nineteenth century and describes his education at the elite Ecole Polytechnique. It records the start of his meteoric career, which began with the manufacture of helical gears (the inspiration for the famous Citroen double-chevron badge), and continued with the production of munitions during the First World War. It goes on to chronicle his prodigious accomplishments as a motor-magnate in the 1920s when he was responsible for the first mass-produced and mass-marketed vehicles in Europe, a feat of industrial creativity that earned him his reputation as the Henry Ford of France. His story comes to a sad end in the Great Depression of the mid-1930s when, just after the launch of his most famous model, the revolutionary Traction Avant, his company went bankrupt and he died.This first published account of Andre Citroen's life and work to be available in English gives a fascinating insight into his complex character, and goes some way towards explaining his extraordinary success and failure. It shows how his mastery of salesmanship and publicity, combined with his love of risk-taking, made him an international celebrity whose adventurous business policies and extravagant way of life consistently created headline news. The book also provides a series of vivid snapshots of the momentous times in which he lived, from the belle epoque and the First World War through the roaring twenties to the wasted years of the 1930s, when his ideals of social and economic progress through international cooperation were destroyed, as he himself was, by the Depression and the rise of fascism.

Fresno was founded in 1872 in the middle of the vast, fertile San Joaquin Valley and quickly became the financial and social center of California. From the infinite amount of agricultural products to lumber, oil, water, and electrical power, the city thrived upon the multitude of natural resources that were abundantly available in the area. As the county seat, it was the political and cultural center of central California. Shown in this volume are postcards of the city in its heyday.
