What do you do when you don't know what to do?
Every clinician experiences moments when 'they don't know what to do'. Modern medicine. is increasingly complex and training has also become more complicated. The days of 'see one, do one, teach one' are over. Yet, both younger clinicians and senior practitioners describe uncertainty as one of the most challenging and stressful aspects of clinical work. If uncertainty is uncomfortable or threatening to individual practitioners, it also provides complex educational challenges. How can we learn to cope with uncertainty effectively ourselves? How can we teach others to understand and manage uncertainty?

In this groundbreaking book, the authors propose ways to cut through uncertainty, which is explored as an inevitable (and even desirable) component of clinical practice. A Map of Uncertainty in Medicine (MUM) is used to classify uncertainty and to define the skills that will help find a way though practical difficulties. It is always good to have your MUM with you in a tricky situation!

Prof. Amanda Howe comments that this is ... a very human book reassuring in its acceptance of limits to our knowledge and skills, while challenging us to apply logic to Schön's swampy lowland and climb out wherever we can'.
