First published in 1969 The Shadow Cabinet in British Politics
attempts to trace and examine the history, growth, and development
of the body popularly known as the ‘Shadow Cabinet’ in Britain.
This body is concerned with power and aspirations of power. The
personnel of Shadow Cabinets are, or at least should be, constantly
prepared to assume the mantle of government. The book discusses
important themes like the origins of the idea of the Shadow
Cabinet; Sir William Harcourt and the Shadow Cabinet; Balfour and
the Conservative Party; from MacDonald to Churchill; the difference
between formally and informally elected Opposition Front Benches;
and the relationship between Opposition responsibilities and
ministerial appointments. This comprehensive short book is a must
read for students of British politics and political science.

A link between iron bioavailability and phytoplankton growth in the oceans was first put forward in the 1930s but it was not until the 1980s that developments in clean sampling and analytical techniques had advanced sufficiently to allow accurate measurements of iron at trace levels. The 1990s have been dubbed the 'Iron Age of Oceanography', and there is no doubt that the role played by iron in plankton ecology has been the decade's 'hot topic' in marine biogeochemistry. During that time the field has developed rapidly, and the initial simple hypothesis, that shortage of iron limits primary production in large areas of the ocean, has evolved into a new paradigm which recognises that iron, along with nitrogen, phosphorus and silicon, is an essential plant nutrient whose availability is a key determinant of phytoplankton growth and species distribution. Answering the need for an up-to-date, wide-ranging and critical review, this volume: - Is the only comprehensive review of the subject area to date;
- Is sponsored by both SCOR and IUPAC - this, together with the leading international status of the editors and chapter authors, gives the book unique authority;
- Contains many references to original research papers, including the key contributions in the field;
- Identifies priorities for future research.
The Biogeochemistry of Iron in Seawater will be an invaluable reference for academics and graduate students in marine sciences as well as marine scientists and oceanographers; environmental analytical chemists; and scientists studying the environmental impact of metals and their role in marine ecosystems.
