This study, written in the context of its first publication in
1970, discusses and documents the invasion of privacy by the
corporation and the social institution in the search for efficiency
in information processing. Discussing areas such as the impact of
the computer on administration, privacy and the storage on
information, the authors assess the technical and social
feasibility of constructing integrated data banks to cover the
details of populations. The book was hugely influential both in
terms of scholarship and legislation, and the years following saw
the Data Protection Act of 1984, which was then consolidated by the
Act of 1998. The topics under discussion remain of great concern to
the public in our increasingly web-based world, ensuring the
continued relevance of this title to academics and students with an
interest in data protection and public privacy.

A devotional guide following the Gospel of Luke, for individuals,
small group study, or sermon preparation. The Gospel of Luke is
relevant for today's Christian seeking insights on prayer, common
humanity, communal equality, and stewardship. Angels, genealogies,
miracles, and parables are rendered accessible, and transformed
from skimming material to the real heart of the Gospel. This
transformation is an invitation for refining one's faith. In a
day-by-day, story-by-story format, Living on the Plain re-tells the
Christian journey through fifty-eight reflections for reading the
Gospel of Luke that can be used as a daily devotion for personal or
group Bible study at any time of the year.
Just how much has changed in Chippenham over the decades is clear
when you consider that Edward Hutton described 1920s Chippenham as
'one of the sleepiest places in England'. Today, the busy cattle
traders in the Market Place of the 1890s and Chippenham's tiny
1930s cottage hospital on London Road have now disappeared, but the
town's thriving population is at its highest-ever level, its
beautiful historic buildings are more in demand than ever, and new
industries, buildings and roads are appearing all the time. In this
fascinating book, local historian Mike Stone compares archive
images of Chippenham with modern photographs of the same scenes
today, chronicling the changing appearance of the town and
unveiling a wealth of historic detail and nostalgic memories sure
to captivate local residents and history enthusiasts alike.
