Joash Woodrow
Joash Woodrow (1927-2006) was a visionary, semi-reclusive artist whose output of several thousand paintings and drawings was discovered only towards the end of his life - filling a modest suburban house in Leeds to the brim. This book illustrates, and discusses in accompanying essays, the artist's landscape and cityscape pictures from his 1940s' adolescence in Leeds, through richly impastoed 1950s' paintings suffused with 'a latent luminosity', to the defiantly original pictures of his final decades: luminous explorations of scruffy local allotments with their ramshackle huts and glistening white picket fences, and transcendant yet acutely observed panoramas of inner city Leeds with its curious mix of high-tech development and unglamorous, sometimes bizarre local details.

The Evidence-Based Primary Care Handbook
Here at last is a realistic and practical book that shows how evidence-based practice can be successfully applied in a primary care setting. The first section provides an introduction to the principles of evidence-based health care as they apply to primary care, and many other books on this subject stop right there. However, Section 3 practises what this first section preaches, by applying these tools to 15 common clinical problems in primary care, such as sore throat, asthma, urinary tract infections, low back pain and heart failure. In between, Section 2 focuses on topics of particular relevance to planners and to Primary Care Groups (PCGs), and includes chapters on commissioning, prescrib...

The Noonday Demon
The author offers a look at depression in which he draws on his own battle with the illness and interviews with fellow sufferers, researchers, doctors, and others to assess the complexities of the disease, its causes and symptoms, and available therapies. This book examines depression in personal, cultural, and scientific terms. He confronts the challenge of defining the illness and describes the vast range of available medications, the efficacy of alternative treatments, and the impact the malady has on various demographic populations, around the world and throughout history. He also explores the thorny patch of moral and ethical questions posed by emerging biological explanations for mental illness. He takes readers on a journey into the most pervasive of family secrets and contributes to our understanding not only of mental illness but also of the human condition.
