GPs Politics and Medical Professional Protest in Britain 1880–1948

This book charts the journey of British General Practitioners (GPs) towards professional self-realisation through the development of a political consciousness manifested in a series of bruising encounters with government. GPs are an essential part of the social fabric of modern Britain but as a group have always felt undervalued clashing with successive governments over the terms on which they offered their services to the public. Explaining the background to these disputes and the motives of GPs from a sociological perspective this research casts new light on some defining moments in the creation of the modern British state from National Health Insurance to the National Health Service and the history of the British medical profession. It examines these events from the point of view of the professionals intimately involved in and affected by them using both established sources like Ministry of Health records an in-depth analysis of rarely studied records of professional bodies and previously unresearched archive material. The result is a fascinating account of conflict and cooperation and of heroic and less-than-heroic defiance of political authority involving interactions between complex personalities and competing ideologies. Scholarly yet readable this book will be of interest to the general reader as much as to medical practitioners and historians. | GPs Politics and Medical Professional Protest in Britain 1880–1948

A Guide to Supporting Breastfeeding for the Medical Profession

This book is a practical guide for medical practitioners as they navigate through breastfeeding problems that occur in day-to-day practice. If mothers have a breastfeeding complication they are often directed to their GP. In complex situations medical staff will be making decisions around what treatment plan to follow and whether a mother can keep breastfeeding. In recent years there has been growing evidence that medical professionals often advise mothers to stop breastfeeding while undergoing treatment when in reality this was not a necessary step. In a time when breastfeeding rates are decreasing it is important that medical professionals give accurate advice and support a mother’s choice to breastfeed if the situation allows it. A Guide to Supporting Breastfeeding for the Medical Profession includes contributions from a wide range of medical professionals and each chapter is written with the practitioner in mind. Contributors include GPs paediatricians neonatologists lactation specialists and midwives. Doctors have a vital role to play in supporting and facilitating breastfeeding and without the appropriate knowledge they can often inadvertently sabotage it. This book will be of interest to GPs and paediatricians as well as nurse prescribers midwives and health visitors.

Uncertainty and Context in GIScience and Geography Challenges in the Era of Geospatial Big Data

Uncertainty and context pose fundamental challenges in GIScience and geographic research. Geospatial data are imbued with errors (e. g. measurement and sampling) and various types of uncertainty that often obfuscate any understanding of the effects of contextual or environmental influences on human behaviors and experiences. These errors or uncertainties include those attributable to geospatial data measurement model specifications delineations of geographic context in space and time and the use of different spatiotemporal scales and zonal schemes when analyzing the effects of environmental influences on human behaviors or experiences. In addition emerging sources of geospatial big data – including smartphone data data collected by GPS and various types of wearable sensors (e. g. accelerometers and air pollutant monitors) volunteered geographic information and/ or location- based social media data (i. e. crowd- sourced geographic information) – inevitably contain errors and their quality cannot be fully controlled during their collection or production. Uncertainty and Context in GIScience and Geography: Challenges in the Era of Geospatial Big Data illustrates how cutting- edge research explores recent advances in this area and will serve as a useful point of departure for GIScientists to conceive new approaches and solutions for addressing these challenges in future research. The seven core chapters in this book highlight many challenges and opportunities in confronting various issues of uncertainty and context in GIScience and geography tackling different topics and approaches. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the International Journal of Geographical Information Science. | Uncertainty and Context in GIScience and Geography Challenges in the Era of Geospatial Big Data
