About this title

Review

'PDPs are simply a concept that helps us do what we have always wanted to do - learn effectively, spot our weaknesses before they become problems, and increase our personal satisfaction. This splendid book is readable, reliable and relevant. Amar Rughani shows that PDPs need not be a source of anxiety, but instead offers us a way to build our skills to help us all find a way through the contemporary difficulties of general practice' David Haslam, in the Foreword 'All GPs will find this book helpful' British Journal of Healthcare Management
