The Politics of British Feminism traces the history of the womens
movement from the achievement of suffrage in 1918 to the revival of
feminism in the late 1960s. Offering new insights into a neglected
period of womens history, Olive Banks seeks to place the womens
movement in its wider context while exploring the nature of
anti-feminism, as well as feminism, over half a century of
turbulent history. Centring on the campaigns fought by different
sections of the women's movement between 1918 and 1970, the book
examines in turn autonomous feminist groups, women in the labour
movement, and female MPs. The co-operation and conflict between
these three groups is explored in detail. The second part examines
the campaigns these groups fought, including attempts to secure
equal pay, and analyses the reasons for their successes and
failures. The unwillingness of the main political parties to
sympathize with the goals of the women's movement is carefully
assessed. Providing an authoritative overview of a previously
neglected period, The Politics of British Feminism, 1918-1970 will
be welcomed by students and teachers of women's history, as well as
interested historians, sociologists and political scientists.

Originally published in 1967 and the result of extensive interviews
and case studies, this book examines the implications of technical
change. Although focussed on the early introduction of computers
the kinds of problems discussed in this book are found in technical
change more widely and the book therefore continues to have
enduring relevance. The book is divided into three parts - an
attitude survey of the administrative staff in departments affected
by the introduction of computers, a study of the mechanisms of
change and a second survey and re-examination of departmental
organisation and work flow.

First published in 1998. This is Volume XVIII of twenty-eight in
the Sociology of Education series. This study looks at the parity
and prestige factors in English secondary school education and
initially written in 1955. It looks at the desired aim of the
secondary school as ensuring that every child receives the
education most suited to his or her capacities and interests,
irrespective of social class or occupational destiny, with the
reality that some school may acquire prestige from the social
standing either of the majority of his pupils or from the
occupations for which they to be prepared.
