Multi-Storey Living: The British Working Class Experience.

Anthony ed. SUTCLIFFE

This study, first published in 1983, is primarily concerned with what the British economists over the period 1860 to 1914 wrote on a range of economic and non-economic aspects of the British Empire, and the reasons for their conclusions. The attempt is also made to correct the view that mainstream British economists after 1860 were antithetical to the concept of empire. This title will be of interest to students of economic thought.

The early Abbasid Caliphate was an important period for Islam. The dynasty, based in Baghdad, ruled over a vast Empire, stretching from the Indus Valley and Southern Russia to the East to Tunisia in the West; and presided over an age of brilliant cultural achievements.  This study, first published in 1981, examines the Abbasid Caliphs from their coming to power in 750 AD, to the death of the Caliph al-Ma’mun in 833 AD, when the period of Turkish domination began. It looks at the political history of the period, and also considers the social and economic factors, showing how they developed and influenced political life.  The work is designed as a unique introduction to the period, and will prove invaluable to all students involved with Islamic, Byzantine and Mediterranean history and culture.

This book surveys the history of the German family in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The contributions deal with the influence of industrialisation on family life in town and country, with rural families and communities under the impact of social and economic change, and with the role and influence of the family in the lives of men and women in the newly-emerged working class. Research on the history of the family had so far, at the point of this book’s publication in 1981, concentrated on England and France; this book adds an important comparative dimension by extending the discussion into Central Europe and bringing fresh evidence and interpretation to bear on the wider debate about the effects of industrialisation on family structure and family life as a whole. The authors approach the subject from a variety of perspectives, including social anthropology, oral history, economic history and feminist studies. This book is ideal for students of history, particularly the history of Germany.

Blood Biochemistry (Croom Helm Biology in Medicine Series)

<p>The idea for this book arose from an integrated Iecture course on the biochemistry of blood given to medical students in the second year of their pre-clinical studies. However, the material in that course has been expanded and it is intended that the book provide both the medical and non-medical reader with a concise and up-to-date account of the status of knowiedge of the biochemistry of blood. A glance at the chapter titles shows how wide a field this covers, including many of the growth areas in biochemistry. It is assumed that readers of the book will have a basic knowiedge of biochemistry. A functional approach is, adopted, and whenever possible the material is organised in terms of biochemical functions, although there are separate chapters on the white cell and the red cello Because of the clinical importance of analysing blood components and assaying enzymes in the diagnosis of disease, chapters are included on the separation, preparation and measurement of blood components.</p>
