These proceedings reflect the major scientific contribution by the First International Congress of the European Federation for Medical Informatics. The European Federation for Medical Informatics is a co-operative venture between the National Informatics Societies of Europe. It is sponsoring this first inter national meeting organised by the Medical Specialist Groups of the British Society under the guidance of a European Scientific Programme Committee. The challenge of medical informatics has been well taken and the scientific papers by its members cover a wide range of topics dealing with medical records, laboratory investigation, indexing and administrative systems, nursing records, planning and administration modelling, data bases, text processing, transferability, user education, privacy, etc. Not published in this volume are presentations by industry about hardware and software. Also at the meeting there will-be teaching sessions for doctors, nurses, scientists and administrators who are just entering this field which are also not published. Medical informatics has established itself as an important area of medical activity and its growing application, as this conference illustrates, suggests a very rich potential for the future. Aids to medical decision making and modelling are newer areas of activity, where significant progress has been made. Sociological changes have taken place to meet this challenge and developments in the issues of privacy and confidentiality are important, as also are user education, and the teaching of medical informatics to medical students and to doctors.

"The Stalking" is the first novel in the Holly Goforth series. It is the coming of age story of a young girl whose privileged boarding school life ends forever with the death and disgrace of her wealthy father. She must return home to support her now destitute family. En route, she is sexually molested by a violent predator. The novel follows the lives of these two people over the next year. With the loss of innocence and the destruction of her sense of entitlement and security, Holly's initiation into adulthood begins. Her responses to the events in her life mature as her knowledge, education, and experience build. Her false view of the world, the last vestige of her pampered life, is corrected by a man, someone she at first calls her professor. Acting together for a common purpose, a source of enormous satisfaction for both of them, they fall in love. They realize what they must do to pursue decent lives and chase happiness together with some realistic hope of achieving it. As Holly's quest succeeds and her world expands, enabling her to grow, her predator's quest to find and destroy her becomes even more relentless. Seduced by his own lust, which he blindly confuses with love, he stalks Holly. His quest causes his constricted life to shrink even further.

At some point in a person's life, he or she makes a wrong choice. When the heart is involved, wrong choices can be devastating. If Only is a creative reimagining of reality, inspired by actual events from the Redhead's and the authors' lives. Weaving forty-five years of actual events, people, and experiences, the authors present a fictional account of what could have been. Bill is an exceptional young man of extraordinary integrity yet he struggles with his confidence in his personal relationships. A gifted athlete and student, he strives to be the best. A leader both on and off the field, he pursues his goals relentlessly. Sarah knows what she wants out of life, and nothing is going to get in the way of her dreams. Strong, intelligent, and assertive, once she sets a plan in motion, she makes it happen. When these two meet unexpectedly, they forge a lifelong relationship. Together, they tackle any obstacle, disaster, or heartbreak that comes their way. While nurturing their relationship, they deal with life's choices, foes, desires, and all the external pressures that threaten to rip their love apart. We all live with the consequences of the choices we've made. Some of us are making those choices at this moment. Most of us have pondered what a different choice would have made with those lost opportunities, about what could have been by making that different choice.
