The present publication relating to peripheral nerve entrapment is an attempt to bring to the attention of physicians an easily readable source of information on this common class of disorders. Frequently encountered disturbances as well as the more obscure entrapments have been included in the volume. The book should have a wide distribution. Despite the neuro logical and neurosurgical orientation, there is much of value for or thopedists and specialists in peripheral vascular disease. There is much of benefit for the general practitioner, with considerable in formation for those in training. There have been relatively few texts published in this field. The material has been organized to give the maximum pertinent infor mation in an easily read and concise arrangement. The various fac tors have been listed with a discussion of therapy. Included is an appendix describing specific methods for testing the function of the individual muscles, and tables for rapid evaluation of individual symptoms. The work is the result of lengthy personal experience and an extensive review of the literature. To make further study attainable, selected references have been cited following each section. Illustra tions have been employed where they could further understanding of the problem involved. Oscar A. Turner Norman Taslitz Steven Ward v Acknowledgments A publication such as this one cannot be the result of a single in dividual's work, and as such, one must acknowledge the help and support of those who were involved in the final preparation.

Electronic Democracy analyses the impact of new information and communication technologies (ICTs) within representative democracy, such as political parties, pressure groups, new social movements and executive and legislative bodies. Arguing for the validity of social perspective in theory building, it examines how representative democracies are adapting to new ICTs. It features a number of comparative studies focusing on the UK, the US, Sweden, Germany, Korea and Australia.

Every Child Matters represents the most radical change to education and welfare provision in almost two decades. This book moves beyond a descriptive ?how to? framework to examine the underlying political and social aims of this policy agenda.

The authors? analysis reveals that Every Child Matters represents the Government's attempt to codify perceived risks in society and to formulate their responses. In doing so, children are made the strategic focus of much wider social policy reform, the effects of which are first felt in education. Does Every Child Matter? explores the ramifications of this along three key lines of analysis:

• the restructuring of the state beyond its welfare functions
• changes in governance and the creation of new binaries
• a redefining of the education sector around the needs of the child.

This book provides a unique and insightful critique of Every Child Matters and its contribution to understandings of New Labour social policy. It locates the genesis of the policy in terms of its social, political and historical contexts and questions the validity of constructing social policy around issues of child welfare. Students, academics and researchers in education studies and education policy will find this book of great interest.

This book is a cross-national analysis of the role of the internet in national electoral campaigns. It covers an array of electoral and party systems throughout the globe from parliamentary to presidential, party-based to candidate-oriented, multi-party to two-party, and stable party system to dynamic party system. It takes a look at three groups of nations with varying levels of Internet access-those where internet usage is common across demographic groups, those where usage has reached significant levels but not widespread penetration, and those where internet access is still limited to a small elite. Each chapter is a study of a particular nation, focusing on its electoral and party systems, the accessibility of the Internet to the population, the nature of candidate/party usage, and the effects of the internet on the conduct of campaigns. By reviewing the findings from these studies, Making a Difference draws conclusions about exactly how the internet influences electoral politics.

This highly illustrated book describes the way places have been 'sold' or promoted to make themselves attractive locations as holiday resorts, residential areas or business centres. It examines the history of what is today universally practised by nearly all towns, cities and regions e.g. industrial towns competing for Japanese car plants, historic towns competing as tourist attractions, major cities competing for international investment by selling themselves as cultural capitals or to stage major events. The author looks at many examples from throughout the world of different ways in which selling places can work, the agencies involved and their varying motivations and effectiveness.

This work explores the effectiveness of British organizations and groups in the environmental field in responding to the challenge of European integration. Examining the relative European orientation of British environmental policy, and the impact of British concerns on European environmental policy, the book examines issues of environmental diplomacy, institutional dynamics, and policy debates relating to specific concerns such as pollution, land use, transport and natural conservation. Presenting examples throughout, the book draws together contributions from academics and practitioners from institutions and organizations such as the DOE, European Commission, WWF and CPRE. The changing context of international relations and global environmental politics, as well as links with Eastern Europe, helps frame the analysis which looks towards future strategies for the British environmental sector in Europe. This book offers an introduction to a range of institutions and policy sectors within the environmental field.

Sociology for Education Studies provides a fresh look at the sociology of education, focusing on themes such as habitus, hegemony and intersectionality. It supports students in applying sociological theory to their own educational experiences and developing an understanding of why social orders appear to be predetermined, why the state continues to create education policy in certain forms and, crucially, how to make it better. The book explores the multi-faceted perspectives that influence the sociology of education and presents examples of the applications of sociology to a wide variety of different educational contexts, including education in schools and in the community. Chapters cover topics such as: Morality, education and social order Spaces of invisibility and marginalisation in schools The global political economy of education Rethinking the 'international perspective' in Education Studies This accessible book is an essential read for students of Education Studies as well as those involved in teacher education and training.

Fully revised and thoroughly updated, the Second Edition of Planning and Urban Change provides an accessible yet richly detailed account of British urban planning.

Stephen Ward demonstrates how urban planning can be understood through three categories: ideas - urban planning history as the development of theoretical approaches: from radical and utopian beginnings, to the new right' thinking of the 1980s, and recent interest in green thought and sustainability; policies - urban planning history as an intensely political process, the text explains the complicated relation between planning theory and political practice; and impacts - urban planning history as the divergence of expectation and outcome, each chapter shows how intended impacts have been modified by economic and social forces.

This Second Edition features an entirely new chapter on the key policy changes that have occurred under the Major and Blair governments, together with a critical review of current policy trends.
