On Hospital Organisation, with Special Reference to the Organisation of Hospitals for Children.
Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
St Mary's
Focusing on St. Mary's hospital, London's great teaching hospital and traditionally the pre-eminent site for medical education in England, E.A. Heaman traces the emergence of the modern scientific teaching hospital and the intellectual, social, and political forces shaping it. Examining the social problems connected with health and the political debates around these problems at both the local parish level and on the national stage, Heaman explains how and why hospitals like St Mary's - originally charitable institutions for the poor - began to admit middle-class patients and eventually came under a national health insurance scheme.
Chest Wall Deformities
Chest wall deformities encompass a variety of congenital and acquired pathologies that affect the pediatric and the adult population. This comprehensive work offers detailed state of the art information on the changing paradigms in ultrastructural evaluation, diagnosis, clinical investigation, and treatment and reflects the shift towards conservative and minimally invasive treatment options. The combination of concise descriptions and high-quality images will provide the reader with a clear understanding of all relevant concepts. Diagnostic and imaging modalities are analysed in depth, and surgical procedures are explained step by step with the aid of clear, informative illustrations. Experts in the management of chest wall deformities from all over the world have contributed their experiences and approaches, making this a unique textbook in the field and an ideal reference work for clinicians and surgeons.​
Going Into Hospital
We all worry about going into hospital. For people with intellectual disabilities there is the added fear of not being able to explain what is wrong, as well as not understanding what is happening. This book is designed to support patients like Martin and Mary, who are shown going into hospital, by explaining what happens to them there. Martin is having a planned operation and Mary is admitted as an emergency. Feelings, information and consent are all addressed. Ideally this book should be used to prepare someone before he or she goes into hospital. It will also be invaluable to hospital staff to use during consultations and before treatments, and to understand the needs of people with intellectual disabilities.

The Running of Hospitals
The Running of Hospitals is a collection of nearly 30 articles on various aspects of the National Health Service published during one of the major reforming periods in UK healthcare, from 1965 until 1985. Written by a former senior hospital and healthcare administrator who was taken on soon after the NHS was set up in 1948, the essays begin during the first Labour Government of Harold Wilson and reflect the growth of the health service through the premierships of Wilson, Edward Heath and James Callaghan up to the early years of Margaret Thatcher. For students, administrators, healthcare workers and anyone interested in the history of the NHS, this book, which brings together for the first time in a single volume some of the most noteworthy articles by one of the profession’s senior figures, will be a welcome addition to the literature on the subject.
