Reviews"In this groundbreaking book on climate, Stephen Burt (Univ. of Reading) and Tim Burt (emer., Durham Univ.) consider data gathered for 180 years, from 1843 to the present, at the Durham University Observatory. This is the longest single-site meteorological study in northern England and among the lengthiest in all of Western Europe." -- J. P. Davis, Hopkinsville Community College, CHOICE connect "This is an interesting exploration of how the complex macroscopic world is derivable from microscopic physics, and how the non-linearity of complex systems leads to issues of predictability and at the same time accounts for physical structures. The author gives personal comments on his own appreciation of the physics throughout the book, as well as a thought-provoking conclusion suggesting that our experience of time is a consequence of the emergence of complexity." -- E.

SynopsisThere are almost 86,000 people in the prison system in the United Kingdom, held in 118 prisons and nine immigration removal centres. People in the carceral system have some of the most complex health and social care needs in all of society. They have higher rates of cardiovascular disease, mental health issues, substance misuse problems, and the prison setting can increase the spread of infectious diseases. Therefore, they require complex, multidisciplinary care that is person-centred and that does not treat them as a prisoner, but rather as a patient.As the specialty of prison medicine develops, this brand new Oxford Specialist Handbook provides an introduction to the discipline, offering a definitive hands-on guide that brings together up-to-date policy and guidance alongside practical tips for practitioners working in the prison estate. Focusing on the multidisciplinary care required to best protect the health of people in prison, this new title brings together perspectives from GPs, psychiatrists, nurses, and occupational therapists on how to best deliver care within the constraints of the detention setting., There are almost 86,000 people in the prison system in the United Kingdom, held in 118 prisons and nine immigration removal centres.
