This book originates from a symposium held at the London Hospital
Medical College under the auspices of Applied Chromatography
Systems Ltd. to discuss the place of HPLC in the endocrinology
field. Many of the authors of the present book were speakers at
this symposium. It seemed to us that many endocrinolo gists did not
at that time fully appreciate the value of HPLC, and this book was
designed to publicise the potential value of this technique. A
survey of methods used in the steroid field Cp 185) confirmed the
view that HPLC is not being used as widely, particularly in
research described in clinical journals, as might be expected. We
hope that this book will illustrate, albeit in a few selected areas
of endocrinology, just how versatile and powerful a technique HPLC
is, and en courage those who have not yet experienced it to have a
go. The beginner does not need to buy expensive instrumentation -
all that is required is a pump, injector, column and detector - the
rest can come later! All the authors have practical experience in
the use of HPLC in the particular area they discuss. All readers
who discover apparent errors or who feel that the treatment of a
topic of interest can be improved upon are encouraged to contact
the editors. All criti cism, especially if constructive, is
welcomed. We are still learning, and other peoples' experience is
always valuable.
This study of England's north-eastern parts examines counties
Durham and Northumberland as well as Newcastle-upon-Tyne, with its
central theme the extent to which the county gentry and urban
elites possessed a sense of regional identity. It concentrates on
these elites' social, political, religious and cultural connections
which extended beyond the purely administrative jurisdictions of
the county or town. By concentrating on a series of seismic changes
in the area - the demise of its great regional magnates, the rapid
upsurge of the coal industry and the union of the crowns - it
offers a distinctive chronological coverage, from the latter half
of the sixteenth century through to the early seventeenth century.
Old stereotypes of the north-eastern landed elites as isolated and
backward are overturned while their response to state formation
reveals their political sophistication. Traditional views of the
religious conservatism of the north-eastern parts are reassessed to
demonstrate its multi-faceted complexion. And contrasting cultural
patterns are analysed, through ballad literature, the cult of St
Cuthbert and increasing exposure to metropolitan 'civility', to
reveal a series of sub-regions within the north-eastern reaches of
the kingdom. Dr DIANA NEWTON is Lecturer in History at the
University of Teesside.
