Editor Steve recently finished reading these two books and recommends them. The first, Klondike Playboy is an autobiography by John Boden, known in this industry as CEO of ElderIssues, Florida, and the second, Pitch Anything, by Oren Klaff is essential reading these days for anyone who has to sell new product ideas. Let's just say you won't want these techniques used against you!
And then, of course, there are the perpetual favourites that everyone in every equipment supplier company should read over and over again, by Geoffrey A Moore.

NHS Direct to be 'scrapped' within lifetime of BSFA |

In an apparently bungled announcement the UK's relatively new Secretary of State for Health let it be known this week that the generally popular phone and online health information service NHS Direct is to be 'scrapped' or, more exactly subsumed into a new service, NHS 111. For Telecare Aware readers, the aspect of note is that this will fall within the period covered by the first phase of the BS Telecare, Telehealth and Telecoaching framework agreement, on which NHS Direct is a significant presence. [Although the question of the appropriateness of its place raised by a TA reader has not been answered. TA item - scroll down to comment #12.] NHS Direct news item from The Independent.
