About the Book

This is a critical examination of the literature relating to the "core curriculum" being developed by the Royal College of General Practitioners, focusing on the behaviour of GPs and their patients, rather than on purely clinical subjects. The text begins with an introduction to critical methods that are then related to distinct problem areas. It brings together the seminal literature that all trainee GPs are expected to be aware of in making decisions about their own behaviour; and it gives insight into how to approach published findings and their conclusions critically.

Table of Contents:
Introduction. Time for the Consultation. Making Sense of 'Minor' Illness. Patients' Ideas. Psychological Distress in General Practice. Communication During the Consultation. Screening for Carcinoma of the Cervix. Medical Ethics. The Economic Aspects of General Practice. Making Sense of Workload Studies. Diffusion of Innovation. Changing the Skill Mix in the Primary Care Team. Critical Appraisal. A Critical Appraisal of the Literature on Tiredness. How Do You Know? The Process of Scientific Reasoning.
