Today's workplace is not just not keeping up with businesses, and their need to compete, it's holding back companies and organizations reliant on knowledge workers to stay ahead. Falling behind in any competitive arena is a bad thing. Technologies and demographics have now changed dramatically enough that old workplace models no longer fit personal demands and business needs. The tech companies started the process. Now they are seeing the consequences in their own business models. They are no longer able to depend on users in fixed settings or comparable technology environments. Mobility and mash-ups are driving work today. The need for multiple, redundant and morphing social, physical and technological networks is clear. Relationships and processes are rapidly evolving...workspace is not keeping up, at least not yet. Who should care? Anyone who works in or runs a business or organization should care because the old workplace does not foster new work. Evolutionary success in organizations makes businesses more successful. In our experience, people and culture are central to that evolutionary success - people drive change that is necessary for adaptation. The emergent workplace is complex, but at its core it is about people and their community and creating support for successful evolution and change.

Infectious diseases remain a leading cause of child morbidity and mortality worldwide. Now in its fourth edition, Manual of Childhood Infections is a simple-to-use, evidence-based, and practical handbook on how to recognize, investigate, and manage both common and rare infectious diseases in children and babies. Endorsed by the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health and the European Society for Paediatric Infectious Diseases, this fully updated version of the established 'Blue Book' complements the Pan European initiatives and UK diploma courses to harmonise patient management and training in Paediatric Infectious Diseases (PID), making it essential reading for UK and European paediatricians. Manual of Childhood Infections is divided into two alphabetized sections for easy access to information, covering key diagnosis and management features of infections alongside crucial points of epidemiology and clinical features. This fourth edition forms practical reading for practising paediatricians, featuring updates to all key chapters based on a literature review alongside new chapters focusing on emerging problems for Europe.
