This book examines the process of Spanish integration into the
European Community, from 1962 when Spain under the Franco regime
applied to the European Community to 1985, when democratic Spain
became a member of the EEC. It aims to prove that, first the
European Community was the crucial external factor determining
political change in Spain, and secondly that Europeanism was a
mechanism of political change, as it was the only aim which unified
the whole political spectrum from the Francoist establishment to
the democratic opposition.

Illness in old age is characterised by vague and atypical
presenting features which are often missed and wrongly attributed
to the ageing process. This is particularly true of endocrine
disorders where hypothyroidism may mas querade as dementia, where
electrolyte imbalance may cause lassitude, and where diabetes
mellitus may produce a wide range of complications com monly
associated with ageing. It is our intention that our book provide
straightforward practical guidance in this difficult area by
delineating the effects of ageing on endocrine function and the
clinical consequences of these; and by describing in detail the
wide range of presenting clinical fea tures of endocrine disease in
the elderly. Physicians are also often baffled and misled by the
effects of ageing and disease on laboratory tests used in the
investigation of endocrine disease. Our book describes these
changes in detail, and gives guidance on which tests are most
appropriate. Ageing and disease also produce subtle changes in the
response of patients to drugs and replacement, and this is also dis
cussed in detail. Subjects included separately and in depth include
thyroid disease, the clinical features and treatment of diabetes,
postmenopausal changes, bone disease, fluid and electrolyte
imbalance, energy imbalance, and drugs caus ing endocrine and
metabolic disorders. These have been chosen because we consider
that they present problems which are particularly relevant to the
elderly. Many other issues are covered in general textbooks of
endocrin ology and have been omitted."
