Managing Childbirth Emergencies in Community Settings Edited by Vivien Woodward, Senior Midwifery Lecturer, Homerton College School of Health Studies, UK, Karen Bates and Nicki Young, both at School of Nursing and Midwifery, University of East Anglia, Norwich, UK

Since the 1990s there has been growing emphasis on reducing obstetric intervention, supporting women’s choices in childbirth and promoting normality. An increase in home birth and midwifery-led birth centres reflect this trend. Currently, there is little guidance for midwives managing childbirth emergencies outside the hospital and without immediate medical assistance. This timely book addresses the deficit and provides both clinical and professional guidance for midwifery practice. It will be a valuable resource for midwifery students, qualified midwives, supervisors of midwives and paramedics.

‘Kader Parahoo’s text offers a clear and thorough introduction to the many principles and processes involved in research. Nursing Research: Principles, Process and Issues is excellent and has much to offer practitioners from all clinical disciplines. This work clearly reflects how attitudes and approaches to research have changed since the first edition was published.

Most, if not all, researchers will agree that they need one good research methodology text on their shelves, and it is increasingly becoming the case that clinicians also need to have a research text available to them in their evidence-based working lives. This revised edition, like its predecessor, meets the needs of both groups - an achievement that is managed by only a few of the great many research texts available. This book is easy to read for novice researchers and students, and yet it also covers the material in sufficient depth to be of value to seasoned researchers and experienced clinicians.

Lazarus, Advocacy and Community RelationsAdviser, WHO RegionalOffice for Europe, Denmark

This volume is a call to re-examine assumptions about what care is and how it be practised. Rather than another demand for radical reform, it makes the case for thinking clearly and critically. It urges people living with HIV to become full partners in designing and implementing their own care and for caregivers to accept them in this role.

‘Well written, informed and fascinating’ - Cheryl Scott, Nursing Standard ‘A valuable resource for any health care practitioner’ - Tom Tait, Learning Disability Practice The most controversial book on nursing written in over a decade, Nurses and Politics explains the key contemporary issues facing both student and qualified nurses. Written in an entertaining and engaging style, it provides a detailed and devastating analysis of two flagship government policies: Agenda for Change (the pay system for nurses and other health workers) and Foundation Hospitals. Yet it looks beyond passing trends and events to get under the skin of what it is that makes nurses and nursing tick, analysing nursing’s mythology and history, as well as its internal organisation and place within the NHS. Extensively researched and referenced, this text is essential reading for anyone interested in the future of nursing.

Contours of Ableism The Production of Disability and Abledness Fiona Kumari Campbell, Senior Lecturer, Griffith University, Australia

Challenging notions of what constitutes ‘normal’ and ‘pathological’ bodies this ambitious, agenda-setting study theoretically reinvigorates disability studies by reconceptualising it as ‘studies of ableism’ focusing on the practices and formations of ablebodiedness to uncover what it means to be ‘able’ rather than ‘disabled’.

Supporting Learning in Nursing Practice A Guide for Practitioners Edited by Sally Glen, Pro Vice Chancellor Academic, University of Wolverhampton, UK and Pamela Parker, St Bartholomew School of Nursing & Midwifery, City University London, UK

‘The writing style is clear and precise, and takes a thoughtfully critical and constructive stance.

This makes it an ideal text, much more than a primer for anyone involved in nursing education.’ Nursing Standard ‘The book is well planned in its content and layout, and was consequently easy to absorb...I would recommend it to members of clinical and teaching staff.’ - Lesley Baxter, Occupational Health Students’ practice experience is now widely acknowledged as being one of the most important parts of their educational preparation in health and social care. New government guidelines place great emphasis on partnerships between the NHS and Higher Education Institutions, and there is a greater expectation for both lecturers and trained nurses to be jointly responsible for the education and training of students on placements. Supporting Learning in Nursing Practice offers guidance to those seeking to review their individual and organisational strategies for supporting learning in practice within the rapidly changing context of nurse education.
