Despite the obvious similarity between delivering bad news and discussing surgical complications, there is a paucity of peer-reviewed literature describing how physicians should best discuss surgical complications with patients and their families. Oetting, MD December 9, Introduction Unfortunately, the practice of medicine requires the occasional communication of bad news. What's your main goal?

This marks the third time in the series that a book has opened somewhere other than with Harry Potter at the Dursleys'. The second was in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire , where we are presented with some of Voldemort's back story and his apparent return. The student might want to consider how much the story is enhanced by these departures from the main character's point of view.
A point worth mentioning is touched upon in the final three paragraphs of the chapter. Much earlier in the series, Hagrid , explaining to Harry why the Wizarding world had to remain hidden from Muggles, had said, "Blimey, Harry, everyone'd be wantin' magic solutions to their problems. Nah, we're best left alone. You can do magic! Surely you can sort out — well — anything! The meeting between the British Prime Minister and Ministry of Magic officials is a rare instance where wizard and Muggle domains overtly collide.
For centuries, wizards have secretly coexisted alongside Muggles, remaining carefully hidden and separate. And while there have always been Muggles who are aware that wizards exists, and even some who have married into that society, what happens in one realm rarely affects the other. This changes when Voldemort's violent attacks begin to include Muggles. Whether or not this is deliberate is, as yet, unclear; Voldemort may intend for the violence to spill over into the Muggle realm as a brazen act to confuse and intimidate other wizards and to demonstrate just how far he can and will go to achieve power.
He may also be intending to breach the long-standing divide between the two realms, bringing both under his rule.
Whatever Voldemort's intent, the Prime Minister is powerless to protect his own people, and he has little choice but to accept the Wizarding world's help and to hope that Voldemort can be defeated, or at least contained to his own sphere. When Voldemort was revealed to be alive, thus showing plainly that Fudge's ministry, by discrediting both Harry and Dumbledore, had been systematically lying to the Wizarding world, retribution by the general populace was swift. Despite Fudge's efforts to retain power, he has been ousted and replaced by someone who appears more dynamic and better prepared to fight Voldemort and the Death Eaters.
The Prime Minister recalls an earlier visit, where Fudge mentioned that he was required to inform the Muggle government that they were importing dangerous magical creatures into Britain for a Wizarding competition: This may confuse some readers, who remember that there were four dragon species at that competition ; however, one was a Common Welsh Green and therefore a native species. It should also be noted that this conversation was quite likely before Harry's name had unexpectedly come out of the Goblet; the original plan might well have been to import three Dragons, and when a fourth was needed, a native variety was used so they would not have to notify the Muggle government again.
It is interesting, perhaps, to note the mix of planning and improvisation that went into the Third Task maze , as we have seen that the challenges Harry faced in that task included one of Hagrid 's Blast-Ended Skrewts , creatures that did not even exist, apparently, until the previous September, and here we see that the Sphinx that Harry encountered in the Maze had been planned well-prior to even the First Task in November.
Two points are mentioned in passing: We note that Dumbledore had warned Fudge that this would happen , which would seem prescient except that Harry had overheard Voldemort planning that earlier and presumably had reported it to Dumbledore. We note that although the main point of this chapter is to acquaint the reader with the change of power, and so prepare them for the change of direction on the part of the Ministry, we actually hear nothing of how that change of power is effected.
