Through the use of over 40 interactivescenarios drawn from real-life practice, the authors encourageyou to use a range of techniques to boostyour personal judgement, introducing different models and approaches to decision-making and exploring their strengths as well as their limitations.The authors then talk youthrough their own suggestions for solving commonplace butchallenging healthcare problems.
