Download or read book Harold Shipman Prescription For Murder written by Brian Whittle and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2009-09-03 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He was a pillar of the community, serving on local committees, donating prizes to the rugby club, organising charity collections. His patients thought the world of him: he was attentive, kind, never too busy to chat. Yet Dr Harold Frederick Shipman was also the most prolific serial killer the world has ever known, with between 200 and 300 victims. Quietly, for many years, the small, bespectacled GP was making unexpected house calls - and walking out leaving a dead body behind. The murderous career of Dr Shipman only came to an end when police in Hyde, Greater Manchester, were called to investigate a forged will. Overnight, they found themselves embroiled in the biggest murder case in British history. Substantially revised and updated since Shipman's suicide in prison, this is a compelling account of these monstrous crimes and of the man who committed them. The authors have had unparalleled access to friends, colleagues and patients. Their in-depth and authoritative investigation looks at how he killed, how he was able to get away with it for so long, and - most important of all - why.

Book excerpt: Harold Shipman - The True Story of Britain's Most Notorious Serial KillerThe man on the cover of this book looks like he could be anyone's grandfather. It's easy to imagine him doting on his little grandkids, reading them stories from his lap and letting them play with his big, bushy beard. If you were told he was a doctor, I bet you'd imagine he was a good, kind and gentle one, with an easy, affable manner and deep care for his patients.Harold Frederick Shipman certainly projected all those qualities, but only so that he could hide the evil that lurked deep inside. Shipman abused his trust and used his position to kill - no less than 218 of his patients found their end at his hand, making him the United Kingdom's most prolific serial killer by a long shot.This book tells Shipman's story, from his childhood under a domineering mother to his pathetic death in a prison cell. It will put you in the perspective of those who lived and worked in proximity to him, showing you the considerate but sometimes haughty doctor he presented himself as before taking you through the process of wrenching off that mask and uncovering the full extent of the evil festering within.We will make a study of the man's possible motives and close with a look at the systemic failures that allowed him to kill and steps taken to make sure nothing like his murderous spree ever happens again.Scroll up and click on the Buy Now button at the top of this page and begin to look into the life and mind of the ultimate human paradox: the healer who kills 'Doctor Death'.

Download or read book Harold Shipman written by Roger Harrington and published by . This book was released on 2018-03-12 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Harold Shipman: Doctor Death: The Shocking Case of the Harold Shipman MurdersAs a society, we are conditioned to believe that doctors will do their utmost to nurture our well-being, and protect our lives. We implicitly trust that people only go into such professions to care for their patients in a loving and attentive manner. Very few of us would suspect that someone claiming to promote our health would not do everything in their power to ensure our survival; and even fewer of us would suspect that someone whose job it is to keep us safe, would actively want to harm us. That blind trust is exactly the mentality that led to over 200 people being murdered at the hands of Britains most prolific serial killer, Doctor Harold Fredrick Shipman. Shipman used the trust of his patients as a weapon against them. He managed to avoid detection as a murderer for almost 30 years by putting on a convincing performance as a conscientious care giver. He would persuade a victims family that he had his patients best interests at heart, even after he had injected their loved one with a lethal opiate overdose, and had watched them die.

Download or read book Medical Self Regulation written by Mark Davies and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Self-regulation constitutes an important aspect of the regulatory and oversight process governing professionals. This book focuses directly on medical self-regulation in the context of both the wider regulatory framework and that of other regulatory models. Through a critical consideration of recent events, including high-profile and controversial cases, it is demonstrated that the self-regulatory process has failed and that only fundamental restructuring and a radical change in attitudes on the part of members of the profession can repair the damage. Attention is also given to the recent changes, current proposals for change and to alternative regulatory models. Medical Self-Regulation will be of international interest, appealing to policy makers, as well as students and practitioners in the fields of medicine, medical law and sociology and professional regulation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The fact that those who lived and worked with Shipman would have had a different perception of him while he was killing them makes it difficult to understand what went wrong. Try to put yourself in the place of Shipman’s contemporaries and relatives. #2 The case of Harold Shipman is not one of those cases that are overzealous in analyzing the childhoods of killers and violent criminals. He was born in 1946, and his mother had a superiority complex. She controlled who he could play with and when, but she especially controlled how he dressed. #3 The young man named Harold Shipman had a life as sheltered and limited interaction with his peers as possible, which is likely why he had little luck with romance. He nonetheless married a young woman named Primrose in 1966. #4 Shipman’s time in medical school was similar to his later life. He was extremely determined to become a doctor, and he was just as reserved as he had been with his peers noticing the same tendency towards haughtiness and aloofness.
