"DOCTORS ON TRIAL has been written so that readers can understand the health crisis in the way it affects them as patients and the doctors with whom they come into contact. Using the dramatic setting of a court of inquiry, the arguments from both sides are examined point by point in a rigorous, compelling debate. The court invites the people in whose hands we place our lives to take the stand and answer the case against them. Leading doctors face a barrage of accusations: malpractice; incompetence; abuse of prescription drugs; unnecessry surgery; exorbitant fees; a growing impersonal attitude to all of us as patients; as well as a conscious denial of the true causes of serious illness...The courtroom personnel are fictional but all the statements they make are either medically accepted statements of fact or else are taken from the pages of the most reputable medical journals.

A final section shows how Jack the Ripper has shaped our vision of London, and influenced our popular culture.Jack the Ripper and the East End coincides with an exhibition organised by the Museum of London at their Museum in Docklands. Key surviving documents from the National Archives and the London Metropolitan Archives will be on display - in addition to material from the collections of the Museum of London such as photographs of the Whitechapel Mission. The illustrations for the book will include rare and unpublished photographs, sections of the 'master' Booth Map of Poverty, detectives' reports and original letters.The introduction will be written by Peter Ackroyd, who is the acknowledged expert on London, its darker aspects and how its history has seeped into its very stones. Leading historians and curators will provide additional insights. This is a book which will be valued for years to come for its enduring and important portrait of the Victorian East End.
