Responding to Intimate Partner Violence and Sexual Violence Against Women
A health-care provider is likely to be the first professional contact for survivors of intimate partner violence or sexual assault.

They also identify health-care providers as the professionals they would most trust with disclosure of abuse. These guidelines are an unprecedented effort to equip healthcare providers with evidence-based guidance as to how to respond to intimate partner violence and sexual violence against women. They also provide advice for policy makers, encouraging better coordination and funding of services...

Inherited Susceptibility to Cancer
Many cancers, both common and rare, are known to have a hereditary predisposition and advances in genetics have clarified the risks and in some cases the mechanisms of cancer developing in an individual. First published in 1998, this important contribution to the literature of cancer genetics covers all the key issues, reviewing both the technology behind genetic risk assessment and the ethical dilemmas it poses. It is divided into two parts. The first deals with ethical, legal and social issues. The second systematically outlines current knowledge of the inheritance patterns of many different cancer types, both from a site-by-site perspective and for special groups. This authoritative volume will be of interest to oncologists, physicians and surgeons in other specialities and to health professionals in the areas of primary care, counselling and cancer risk assessment.

Once thought rare, hemochromatosis is now acknowledged as one of the commonest inherited disorders, affecting one in two hundred people of western Caucasian descent. It is estimated to affect over one million people in the USA alone. This is the most comprehensive clinical reference yet on hemochromatosis. The international author team includes specialists in internal medicine, hematology, hepatology, genetics, biochemistry and molecular biology, and the contents cover all aspects of pathophysiology, epidemiology, diagnosis and treatment. The latest developments in the genetics of the disorder are well explained, and there are sections on screening, diagnostic techniques, and clinical complications. Social and ethical issues are also considered. Highly illustrated, up-to-date and authoritative, this is the definitive resource for all clinicians involved in the management of hemochromatosis, and will also be invaluable to scientists interested in iron metabolism and iron overload.
