The authors - who include those working in medicine, nursing, social work, psychology, sociology, social policy and economics - examine the different points of view regarding the position of counselling in primary care and which team members are the most appropriate counsellors Used

Structures of Control in Health Management
Hardcover. No jacket. Ex-library. Library sticker to spine and FEP. Stamp and pen on FEP. Text is clean, tight and bright. Using a variety of evidence the author documents the rise of general management, the application of new techniques to reduce medical costs and improve efficiency, and other methods to control use and evaluate clinical performance. The impact and significance of these developments is discussed, and illustrated in detail by original case study material and interview data about managerial strategies of rationalization and retrenchment. Rob Flynn describes new systems of monitoring, regulation and surveillance applied to doctors and health workers, and argues that these threaten established power relations and institutional arrangements, by elevating managerial concepts for efficiency above professional definitions of need and citizenship demands for unrestricted access on the basis of need. Measures to create an internal market in the NHS are also analysed, and he argues that current trends will intensify managerial influence and undermine professional medical power Used

Reducing Breast Cancer Risk in Women
Hardcover. Library sticker on the spine, inside of the cover and on the FEP. Stamp on title page. Breast cancer is not only a burning public issue, but very soon we shall see genetic testing for a woman's predisposition to breast cancer. Many women will be demanding to know their degree of risk and will need counselling to cope with that information. This book is particularly aimed at primary health care professionals, including physicians, medical assistants, nurses and counsellors, who daily deal with questions from women concerned about their risk of developing breast cancer. To answer such questions, this book has combined a guide to identifying women at higher risk to breast cancer, with a balanced review of approaches which aim to reduce that risk. The book provides practical general measures which may reduce risk for women at average risk. For women at clearly increased risk various protective options with different levels of efficacy and acceptability are discussed. Central to the book is the patient - centered view. We need to face reality that it still will take many years before the current clinical trials of preventive measures provide meaningful results Government Reference Library

Sexual Behaviour and AIDS in Britain
Library sticker on the spine and FEP, Stamp on the Contents page. How will the AIDS epidemic grow in Britain? How might it best be contained? This report investigates contemporary sexual behaviour in Britain in order to answer these questions. Part one of the report reviews the progress of the epidemic to date, and describes the social and political responses to it. Part two describes an investigation of sexual behaviour in present day society, a direct inquiry among 1289 men and 1241 women, from which patterns are projected towards the coming decades. Part three describes and uses a computer simulation model to predict the future incidence and prevalence of HIV-infection, of cases of AIDS and of deaths from AIDS. Alternative preventative measures are then evaluated. The final chapter outlines the more practical implications and formulates the necessary components of an effective and appropriate preventative policy. Government Reference Library
