(Journal of Perioperative Practice, 1 February 2011) "This book could be a useful reference for educational supervisors, and offers a strategic overview and signposting resource for those undertaking Postgraduate Clinical Education Certificates. All public health specialty training departments should consider holding a copy and I would recommend it as a reference for our 'training the trainer' courses." (Jpubhealth, 1 March 2011)More details
