  • - Foreign Affairs from Churchill to Thatcher
     
    1 829,-

    The importance of the Prime Minister in British foreign policy decision-making has long been accepted by historians. However, whilst much attention has been given to high level contacts between leaders and to the roles played by the Premiers themselves, much less is known about the people advising and influencing them. In providing day-to-day assistance to the Prime Minister, the Private Secretary could wield significant influence on policy outcomes. This book examines the activities of those who advised Prime Ministers from Winston Churchill (1951-55) to Margaret Thatcher during her first administration (1979-83).

    2 372,-

These individuals were not only essential for putting public health policy into practice, but could also impact its formation. They constitute one of the most important, and understudied topics in the history of British colonial medicine.

  • - Numbers and the People in Modern Britain, c. 1800-2000
     
    2 372,-

    Contemporary public life in Britain would be unthinkable without the use of statistics and statistical reasoning. Numbers dominate political discussion, facilitating debate while also attracting criticism on the grounds of their veracity and utility. However, the historical role and place of statistics within Britain 's public sphere has yet to receive the attention it deserves. There exist numerous histories of both modern statistical reasoning and the modern public sphere; but to date, there are no works which, quite pointedly, aim to analyse the historical entanglement of the two. Statistics and the Public Sphere: Numbers and the People in Modern Britain, c.1800-2000 directly addresses this neglected area of historiography, and in so doing places the present in some much needed historical perspective.

  • - New Racisms and the Problem of Grouping in the Human Sciences
    av USA) Beasley & Edward (San Diego State University
    864 - 2 208,-

    Not until the early nineteenth century would polygenetic and racialist theories win many adherents. But by the middle of the nineteenth century in England, racial categories were imposed upon humanity. This title focuses on how the idea of 'race' gained popularity in England at that time.

  • - Dissent, Decline and Re-emergence 1945-c.2000
    av UK) Laybourn & Keith (University of Huddersfield
    611 - 1 593,-
