AS FAR AS the majority of laypeople<br >are concerned, medicine is a<br >baffling and complex subject, full of<br >technical jargon and terms that no<br >one lacking a medical or nursing<br >qualification could possibly fully<br >understand. There is no reason<br >why this should be so, and, thus<br >this Famih/ Health<br >Enc!tclopaddia has been planned,<br >wri{ten and illustrated to blow<br >away the cobwebs, tt~row open the<br >closed doors of the confessional<br >consulting room and strip the<br >subject bare of technical mumbo-<br >jumbo. Its aim is simple- to help<br >people enjoy their health to the full,<br >bv showing them what practical<br >steps they can take to preserve it,<br >and, in cases of illness and disease,<br >how to understand what can be<br > done to help them regain their<br > normal level of fitness.<br > Throughout, the aim has been to<br > demystify- to explain in clear,<br > down-to-earth terms everything<br > your doctor would tell you if he or<br > she had the time. The book takes as<br > its basic philosophy the desire most<br > people show, wnen they visit their<br > doctors, for reassuring explanation<br > statistics actually demonstrate<br > that many people enter a doctor s<br > surgery with this in mind. Worry<br > and-stress are contributory factors<br > to quite a few illnesses ~ physical<br > as well as psychological ones-<br > and any gooct doctor s aim is to<br > tackle these problems as well as the<br > ones posed by actual physical<br > disease. The doctor today is as<br > much counsellor as diagnostician.<br > In addition, the modern surgery<br > has social, as well as medical, back-<br > up, in the form of ancillary staff of<br > all kinds, who are concerned as<br > much with general welfare as with<br > specific medical problems.<br > Remember a few things. Firstly,<br > there is a lot you can do yourself to<br > reserve your health, as You apzd<br > our Health shows. Secondly, there<br >is much you can do to ease the<br >impact of disease, as demonstrated<br >in Home Nursing. Thirdly, and most<br >importantly, you should never be<br >afraid to ask questions, whether a<br >doctor is visiting you at home, or<br >you are in the local surgery, or in<br >hospital. Most doctors are happy to<br >sit down and talk through a<br >problem if you really want them to,<br >and this should be vour<br >opportunity to ask them to explm<br >anything you feel unsure of, or do<br >not follow. Do not be afraid that<br >you will show your ignorance.<br >After all, many doctors are equally<br >ignorant of technical subjects<br >outside their profession.<br > One thing this book is not is a<br > guide to self-diagnosis and<br > treatment. Encouraging this could<br > well be dangerous. If you feel ill,<br > never, ever, think it is not worth<br > bothering a doctor; any doctor<br > would far rather treat a minor<br > complaint than be faced with one<br > thathas grown into a major<br > problem.<br > Finally, a word about the<br > writers. The Medical Consultant is<br > a busy general practitioner, who,<br > r- " a<br > on average, sees ~00 pat,ents<br > month. Other sections have been<br > written by a team of young, up-to-<br > date general practitioners,<br > supported by experts in particular<br > specialist fields. All have been<br > advised bv an Editorial Board of<br > .2 ~ ~ " S<br > prominent medical authontm.. We<br > hope we have fulfilled the aims<br > outlined here.<br >Mcc<br >
