Media Reviews
This book is a most helpful review of current trends...Chapters are offered by a range of well recognised authors. All are well focused, concise, and will be of help to every clinician. At a price to gladden the financial director's heart, every clinical director (and their successors) should be bought one. Non-executive directors should already have bought their own.
Hospital Doctor

We all have to get a grip on quality control...A good start would be to read this book. It won't answer all your questions, and there will be some bits you (more or less) know already. But there is wisdom, and there is an astringent quality to some of the chapters. That on the myth of accurate information has real bite. Stacks of contacts and sources are also given. Read this and you won't be caught out in this brave new world.
Bandolier

This is a good book: it is interesting, varied and useful...If you are interested in clinical governance as a student or an observer, or if you want to get your bearings, this is a good place to start.
