New Books for June 2008

The Library's New Books list for June has just been published. This shows the latest selection of resources available to you from the library. To see more, visit our catalogue at NewhamCat from any Newham University Hospital NHS Trust or Newham PCT networked computer.

We now have the new 17th edition of Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine and the 9th edition of The Maudsley Prescribing Guidelines. For obstetricians & gynaecologists there are the latest editions of Progress in Obstetrics and Gynaecology and Yearbook of Obstetrics and Gynaecology.

And we have purchased a copy of Evans & Tippins Foundations of nursing: an integrated approach, for which Newham's very own Andrew Frazer has written a chapter.

You will also find links from NewhamCat to the final report of Lord Darzi's NHS Next Stage Review High quality care for all and to other key new NHS documents. The King's Fund SeeSaw Report on Shifting the Balance of Care to Local Settings, and Under One Roof, their report regarding Polyclinics, are also linked from NewhamCat.

We are in the process of adding titles to NewhamCat from the nationally available NHS Core Content electronic book collection, eg Cardiology in Family Practice, Clinical Handbook of Pediatric Infectious Disease, Adult Psychopathology and Diagnosis to name a few, and we will add more over the coming weeks. These titles are accessed with your NHS Athens log-in, and can also be accessed from the National Library for Health.

Do contact us if you need help with Athens registration, or have any comments or suggestions for new titles.
