Reviews / Votes
"... a readable introduction to the newer requirements of CPD and will contribute to the development of a dialogue between the multiple levels of CPD providers and the multiple levels of CPD consumers." Don Moore, PhD, Professor of Medical Education and Administration, Emeritus, Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, Nashville, USA"... a much-needed publication clearly explaining how to put into practice the key concepts in continuing medical education and continuing professional development for healthcare professionals ... it validates the knowledge and practice of the experienced, as well as making sense of the jargon for the new-comer." Eugene Pozniak, Programme Director, European CME Forum
"... an excellent primer in the history, current structure and potential of continuing medical education (CME) to improve physician performance as well as knowledge." Lewis A Miller, Principal, WentzMiller Global Services LLC, USA "Doctor Stevenson has written an important book that should initiate the overdue conversation between the providers and consumers of CME/CPD. It provides helpful information combined with Dr. Stevenson's distinctive brand of humour. In the past several decades, what has been called continuing medical education (CME), which usually consists of mostly passive lectures for "attendees", has evolved into continuing professional development (CPD), which increasingly requires more engagement on the part of "participants". Stevenson shows that recognition and understanding of this evolution has occurred primarily in the provider world while consumers of CME/CPD have been mostly in the dark about what they are "subjected to" when they are asked to participate more fully in current CPD activities. Current CPD activities are more likely to encourage reflection on practice and active learning. Dr. Stevenson's brief book provides a readable introduction to the newer requirements of CPD and will contribute to the development of a dialogue between the multiple levels of CPD providers and the multiple levels of CPD consumers. Learning and Behaviour in Medicine is recommended for individuals in both groups as a way to begin the dialogue. Hopefully the dialogue will lead the emergence of "self-evaluating/self-improving" clinicians and the best possible outcomes for their patients." Don Moore, PhD, Professor of Medical Education and Administration, Emeritus, Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, Nashville, Tennessee, USA
"Finally, a much-needed publication clearly explaining how to put into practice the key concepts in continuing medical education and continuing professional development for healthcare professionals. Essential reading, it validates the knowledge and practice of the experienced, as well as making sense of the jargon for the new-comer." Eugene Pozniak, Programme Director, European CME Forum
"Robin Stevenson has produced an excellent primer in the history, current structure and potential of continuing medical education (CME) to improve physician performance as well as knowledge. His work is particularly valuable to medical establishments in Europe, Asia and Africa (medical schools and specialty societies) who need to play significant roles in the CME enterprise but to date have neglected to do so. Let's hope Learning and Behavior in Medicine will encourage these organizations to change their own behavior!" Lewis A Miller, Principal, WentzMiller Global Services LLC, USA
