The Dog Comes With The Practice - Expanded Second Edition
By Tom Baskett  
This expanded second edition adds ten new chapters, including end -of-life decisions, the ethics of informed refusal and criminal abortion.“Tom Baskett’s The Dog Comes With The Practice is a memoir that is in turns both deeply touching and laugh-out-loud funny. He recalls his early years working as a junior hospital doctor and as a locum general practitioner in Northern Ireland in the mid 20th century, before specializing and providing consultant obstetrical and gynaecological services in Canada’s remote Arctic communities. His writing about technical medical matters is crystal clear, his humour typically Irish and self-deprecatory, his concern for his patients as individuals and his willingness to expose his own fears and regrets shine through.
The medical equivalent of All Creatures Great and Small.
Patrick Taylor. New York Times best-selling author of the Irish Country Doctor series.

“Funny and moving stories …. If you’re tired of ‘misery lit’, read this and feel better.
This book has something to say to today’s trainees.”
The Obstetrician and Gynaecologist.

“The description of life as a medical student and young doctor is authentic, told with humour and laced with direct quotes from colleagues and patients, often in the colourful Belfast vernacular …. A valuable account of a system of training that is now part of history.”
Ulster Medical Journal

“Told as a series of patient stories … in the virtual and technology-driven world we inhabit, this gentle volume reminds us that, at the core, medicine is about people.”
Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Canada

“It reads as tales given after dinner at the fireside … Humorous and self-deprecating, but at times serious and poignant, describing the limits of 1960s medicine. A good read, with education and thought thrown in.”
British Society for the History of Medicine

Great Multi-Function Watch
Color: Gray/Digital/Gray
I absolutely love my Timex Ironman watches. I have had many over a very long period of time. Wonderful set of functions for the price. Very affordable. Easy to use. Lasts a long time. Very easy to read in standard lighting. I like the Indiglo when needed, but do not use it too often. Absolutely love the ability to set a repeat timer to remind me to do something at a fixed interval, or to keep me on task for a fixed period of time. Great to be able to set three independent alarms. Potential to capture a huge number of splits with the stopwatch. I purchased this watch to replace a similar model with a dead battery. I have replaced batteries in the past, but it is quicker and easier to buy a replacement watch. I am saving my old watches for that day in the future when the Ironman model may no longer be available. I expect this will be my watch of choice for the rest of my life.

Just fine if you have simple needs...
Color: Black/Digital/Black/Green
Exactly what I needed: a cheap, durable wrist watch. The only thing it was lacking were instructions, but about 5 minutes of messing with the buttons got it set up

Good Looking for the price.m
Color: Silver Black
This is a fashion watch people! Many people review these sub-50 dollar watches like they are supposed to be a timepiece you would hand down to your grandchildren. This is not that. If that's what you are looking for, spend more money. What this is: A decent looking inexpensive watch that is a homage to a much more expensive watch. If you expect the quality of a Brew Metric, purchase that. This keeps good time and is comfortable.
