Latest New Books list now out

We have just published the April / May edition of our New Books list.

We've combined two months, as the turn of the financial year is always a slow time for book purchasing.

There are several useful titles for anaesthetics specialists, including the latest edition of the classic Miller's anesthesia, & Training in anaesthesia in the Oxford Specialty Training series. Check our online catalogue NewhamCat for other titles in this series already in stock.

For emergency units, Acute cardiac care : a practical guide for nurses by Kucia & Quinn will be a useful guide, along with Acute stroke nursing by Williams, Perry & Watkins.

Surgeons will appreciate, amongst others, Basic surgical skills & techniques by Stoker & Jain, & Emergency surgery by Brooks et al.

And medics of all persuasions should enjoy First do no harm : being a resilient doctor in the 21st century, which offers advice on how to balance life and work.

There are many more titles listed, & click on NewhamCat to select from our full holdings.
