This is a guide to the training opportunities and choices available to aspiring actors. Beginning with early preparations, from singing to speech, dance, sport and general education, the author goes on to discuss A Level theatre studies, stage schools and BTech courses. He continues with a discussion on the advisability of going to drama school, and explains how to prepare for an interview, select an audition speech, and gives reasons why an applicant may not be accepted. Detailed outlines of full-time NCDT-approved courses are given, as well as details of some part-time courses. There is advice on what to expect from drama school. Prunella Scales, the actress, has contributed a chapter on the minimum requirements expected of an actor who has completed drama training, and there is a forward by Dame Judi Dench.

Multiphase systems dominate nearly every area of science and technology, and the method of volume averaging provides a rigorous foundation for the analysis of these systems. The development is based on classical continuum physics, and it provides both the spatially smoothed equations and a method of predicting the effective transport coefficients that appear in those equations. The text is based on a ten-week graduate course that has been taught for more than 20 years at the University of California at Davis and at other universities around the world. Problems dealing with both the theoretical foundations and the applications are included with each chapter, and detailed solutions for all problems are available from the author. The course has attracted participants from chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, civil engineering, hydrologic science, mathematics, chemistry and physics.

Written for use in the first course of a typical chemical engineering program, Material Balances for Chemical Reacting Systems introduces and teaches students a rigorous approach to solving the types of macroscopic balance problems they will encounter as chemical engineers. This first course is generally taken after students have completed their studies of calculus and vector analysis, and these subjects are employed throughout this text. Since courses on ordinary differential equations and linear algebra are often taken simultaneously with the first chemical engineering course, these subjects are introduced as needed. 
Teaches readers the fundamental concepts associated with macroscopic balance analysis of multicomponent, reacting systems 
Offers a novel and scientifically correct approach to handling chemical reactions 
Includes an introductory approach to chemical kinetics 
Features many worked out problems, beginning with those that can be solved by hand and ending with those that benefit from the use of computer software 
This textbook is aimed at undergraduate chemical engineering students but can be used as a reference for graduate students and professional chemical engineers as well as readers from environmental engineering and bioengineering. The text features a solutions manual with detailed solutions for all problems, as well as PowerPoint lecture slides available to adopting professors.

The current construct of intellectual disability is based on the assumption that both IQ and adaptive behaviour can be measured accurately. Intellectual Disability explains how and why this is not fit for purpose and that it is actually neither necessary nor reasonable to have a single construct of intellectual disability.

Whitaker's Concise Almanack 2011 is the definitive reference guide to the UK. A softback, shorter version of its big sister, Whitaker's Almanack, the Concise edition is a UK-centric goldmine of information with enormous breadth of coverage. The main difference between this and the standard edition is that it doesn't include the international coverage of the standard edition, so the reader with an interest in UK facts and figures is really getting value for money at less than half the price. Areas of coverage include: government and politics, communications, private and state education, religion, environment, cultural heritage, the UK legal system, royalty and peerage, social welfare (including pensions!), IT, mobile phone industry, environment, heritage, astronomy of course, and much more - quite simply, the UK in one volume!'If you want to know it... it's here' John Humphrys
