In recent years there have been considerable changes in the ways in which politics and policy making are studied. The student is faced not only by a diversity of theoretical approaches but also with competing vocabularies and specialist terminologies. This text provides an introduction to the workings of the British political process and clarifies study methods. Drawing widely on case study material and memoirs of ex-ministers and civil servants, the authors show how political decisions are taken and policies adopted in cabinet, inside Parliament and in the political parties. They argue that Parliament is marginal in political decision making, and also powerfully reject the thesis of adversary politics.

There is a mine of information in this large, illustrated chronicle of London which presents almost a thousand years of history through year-by-year accounts. After a general overview of prehistoric and Saxon London, Richardson begins with 1065 and the causes of the Norman Conquest and ends with the erection of the Dome and the London Eye. In between are entries which illustrate the daily life, disasters and achievements of London as well as other events, such as the siege of 1141 and the plague in 1348, which reflect national crises. The entries record the gradual construction of the London that can be seen today, such as the building campaigns at the Tower of London and the destruction of many of its buildings. An enjoyable read on London's past.

<p>Hypertext is the term coined for the storage of electronic data, whether it be textual or graphic, in such a way that the whole file, in addition to, say, a word processor, becomes an electronic "concordance." This book positions hypertext in an interdisciplinary area created by the overlap of psychology, computer science and information science, in addition to assessing its importance in the field of electronic publishing. Rather than simply summarize everything that has gone before, it aims to provide a position statement from which further work can be suggested. This book will be of interest to researchers, software authors, publishers and anyone concerned with distributing information.</p>

No Normal Day III (West) Fifteen years after the event that altered America and the world, some of the citizens of Unity felt compelled to venture out from the small and secure haven, where they had lived all these years. They wanted to know... what was really out there in the world beyond their limited perimeters? The inhabitants of Unity had made alliances, they had been victorious in a hard fought battle to keep their boundaries safe. The struggles had created a self sufficient small city that was somewhat insulated from the outside world. That environment beyond their home, would be unknown territory. One thing that the four adventurers were certain would be out there was danger. The small group was willing to take the risk to explore the possibility of a new life. Would the journey west take them to new horizons or would they be lost in a hostile and perilous America? No Normal Day IV (Travelers) It was fifteen years after a catastrophic event had impacted America and the world. Jeff and his young son, Kevin, were travelers in the often not hospitable landscape of the country. The two nomads had a chance encounter with four adventurers from Texas. While the travelers from the safe haven of Unity would soon reach their destination and end their journey, the father and son would continue on in other directions. Their challenges lurked in the unknown territories that awaited them. The brief encounters they made with other survivors in the After world, were usually the first and last. Would they ever see the Texas folks again? There would certainly be other meetings in their wanderings, such as Emily, a young woman all alone and fighting to stay alive. In this America that was far from restored, the good, the evil and everything in between existed. Jeff was determined to keep his son safe and convinced that to stay on the move was the right choice. Would the dangerous roads ahead change his mind and send him in search of a safe haven, a new home?
