Feature drama starring Minnie Driver as a schoolteacher intent on
staging a rock opera version of 'The Tempest'. It is the summer of
1976, and Viv May (Driver) is an enthusiastic young drama teacher
at a Swansea secondary school. With her diaphanous dresses and
progressive attitudes, former actress Viv has her enemies amongst
the school's more conservative staff, and has set her sights on
creating a high-octane fusion of Shakespeare and David Bowie for
this year's school performance. Between rehearsals her adolescent
students pass the hot summer days lounging around the lido,
fighting and falling in love, as their future beyond the safe
confines of school life looms ahead of them.
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

After more than two decades of widespread hardship for most
nations, what are the different paths available for them to resume
steady growth and welfare? Will they actually succeed in building
new growth models that meet the challenges of the present phase of
internationalisation? This book attempts to answer these questions
by analysing different perspectives and discussing the conditions
for new national growth trajectories to emerge. The book provides
conceptual tools for characterising alternative growth regimes by
analysing their institutional backgrounds and political context.
Unlike standard convergence theories, the authors argue that the
diversity of capitalism is likely to persist as national economies
adapt to the forces of globalisation. Still these national paths
remain strongly conditioned by the kind of governance set up at
both regional and fully international levels. The Hardship of
Nations will be of great interest to undergraduates and graduates
in the social sciences - economics, political sciences, sociology,
geography and management - who require an overview of the debates
on growth of national economies in the present stage of
globalisation.

The issue of universal and free access to treatment is now a
fundamental goal of the international community. Based on original
data and field studies from Brazil, Thailand, India and Sub-Saharan
Africa under the aegis of ANRS (the French nationalagency for
research on Aids and viral hepatitis, this timely and significant
book both assesses the progress made in achieving this objective
and presents a rigorous diagnosis of the obstacles that remain.
Placing particular emphasis on the constraints imposed by TRIPS as
well as the poor state of most public health systems in Southern
countries, the contributing authors provide a comprehensive
analysis of the huge barriers that have yet to be overcome in order
to attain free access to care and offer innovative suggestions of
how they might be confronted. In doing this, the book renews our
understanding of the political economy of HIV/AIDS in these vast
regions, where the disease continues to spread with devastating
social and economic consequences. This volume will be a valuable
addition to the current literature on HIV/AIDS in developing
countries and will find widespread appeal amongst students and
academics studying economics, sociology and public health. It will
also be of interest to international organizations and professional
associations involved in the fight against pandemics.
First Reprinted in 1999. Originally published in 1919, this volume
aimed to answer the various enquiries which puzzled those in the
scientific field of psychoanalysis. This title is formatted in a
questions and answers structure where Coriat directly addressed the
prominent topics of psychoanalysis study at the time of original
publication. The self-described character of the book permits
theory and discussion and a brief bibliography is appended for
further study.
This book presents the latest advances in abnormal psychology and
discusses the methods of analyzing subconscious phenomena and
making them objective facts. It focuses on a study of functional
disturbances which, either in whole or in part, are due to
perversions of subconscious mental states.
Psychology in both its academic and practical aspects is now at the
parting of the ways and the immediate future will determine whether
it shall remain unproductive or become an instrument of practical
importance in the guidance of human interests
This book looks at the experience of 13 leading-edge European
companies, drawn from the manufacturing, services and health
sectors. It shows how organisation has been the key to their
productivity growth. It also shows that whilst Europe has much to
learn from Japan and the USA, there is a distinctive European
approach to organisational expertise. This has important
implications for strategic policy, in these institutions
themselves, but also in government at both the national and local
levels. Here, too, as the case studies show, Europe has
considerable expertise on which the production sector can grow.
