Summary
The feel-good place to buy books
Oxford Handbook for the Foundation Programme by Nathalie Hurley
This is the ultimate guide to surviving your first two years as a doctor. Buying this book is a rite of passage for a junior doctor, a bit like getting the bleep for the first time except you won't grow to hate it. It covers all the essential knowledge including on-call emergencies, day-to-day ward life, clerking patients, referrals, procedures and interpreting results. Don't go on-call without it! Better still this book will help you get your next job. It has practical tips on the new career system, MMC, completing your portfolio, interviews, application forms and getting published. This new edition has been thoroughly updated in light of the MMC changes to medical training and advances in clinical practice. There are also numerous new sections including life on the ward and prescribing - two of the biggest challenges that new doctors face.
The real gems in this book are in the clinical presentations section, where management is arranged according to presenting complaint rather than by condition..a book...pitched at the right level for a junior doctor. British Journal of Hospital Medicine
Dawson, James: - Jim Dawson's newspaper career spanned 44 years, 35 of them as a sports writer, editor and columnist. He worked for six newspapers and one university, starting as a 17-year-old police reporter and ending as publisher of 10 weekly newspapers. He chronicled many of the famous athletes and coaches of his day in his autobiographical book Life in the Toy Department and other splendiferous places, published in 2017. He was diagnosed with End Stage Renal Disease in 2019. I hadn't written anything except 'Toy Department' for 25 years, he said, but kidney disease was a wake-up call. I started peritoneal dialysis and discovered that I wasn't quite used up, so began writing short stories and a little poetry. Jim is 86 years old, He and his wife Barbara live in a senior community in Rocklin, California.
