General Practice Today explores the GP consultation in the context of external 'stressors' and 'helpers' that doctors use to make best clinical decisions. It offers advice on everything from law, technology and time management to mental health issues, ethics, religion and culture, and how to determine which issues are relevant to each consultation.
This book reflects the ever-changing landscape of general practice; it's a resource that can be used before, during and after a consultation to allow the busy clinician to prepare prior, or be directed to a more in-depth resource as required.

Practical advice is certainly forthcoming in most of the book, such as a handy list of links to the best sources of information and risk calculators that GPs would do well to have on their desktop. I'd recommend reading this book sooner rather than later! Pearce Cusack, GPST1, Logan Practice, British Journal of General Practice , 2018
