The Bottom Line: Getting a Grip on Your Practice's Finances by Ben Bradley You went through years of training to become a top oral surgeon, but probably were never properly taught how to evaluate financial reports. You would never expect an accountant to evaluate a radiograph, so why is it assumed you should be able to read and comprehend complex financial statements from your CPA? In The Bottom Line, Ben Bradley explains how he helps oral surgeons just like you learn to understand their OMS practice finances so you can manage your practice to be more efficient, all the while reducing your stress and improving your bottom line. As an oral surgeon, spending the majority of your time in the clinical side is where you should be. As a business owner, the better you understand the financial side of your practice the more profitable you can be. The Bottom Line helps you achieve both!

This book uses the work of Castle and Fett (2000) and Richard J Fenno (1873) to compare defection in the US political system with crossing the floor by MPs in UK Parliament between 1994-2010, when New Labour were a dominant force. It first explains these authors¿ suggestion that US Congressmen move for career based reasons rather than political ones, before looking at examples from British history and three case studies from the New Labour era. These case studies are Alan Howarth, Shaun Woodward and Quentin Davies. Based on personal interviews with these three switchers, along with the historical examples, this work argues that British MPs change parties not for career based reasons but largely for ideological ones. In all these cases the MPs themselves have remained relatively consistent whilst the parties changed around them until they were no longer compatible, whilst at the same time New Labour became a much more attractive prospect.

Ben Bradley investigates what is good about life and what is bad about death. He argues that pleasure is what makes life go well, and that death is bad for its victim even though the victim ceases to exist, because it deprives him of a continuing good life. Bradley considers intriguing related questions, including how death can be made less bad.
