This is a critical reference guide to the important contribution made by women-writers to the renaissance of British drama since the late 1950s. The coverage ranges from collective work, women's companies and cabaret through to traditional single author plays. The book chronicles low-budget, short-running fringe shows as well as London productions of "big name" authors. It explores writing by lesbians and by black women, and examines in detail women's theatre in Wales, Scotland and Ireland (as well as England). It draws on both theoretical issues in feminist criticism, and political developments in the women's movement.

For researchers in educational settings whose research is motivated by considerations of justice, fairness and equality, this text addresses questions they may face. Such questions considered are; will a prior political or ethical commitment bias the research?; how far can the ideas of empowerment or "giving a voice" be realized?; how can researhers who research communities to which they belong deal with the ethical issues of being both insider and outsider? The text provides a set of principles for doing educational research for social justice. These are rooted in considerations of methodology, epistemology and power relations, and provide a framework for dealing with the practical issues of collaboration, ethics, bias, empowerment, voice, uncertain knowledge and reflexivity, at all stages of research from getting started to dissemination and taking responsibility as members of the wider community of educational researchers. Theoretical arguments and the realities of practical research are brought together and interwoven. Thus, the text should be of relevance to all researchers, and research students designing and writing up their theses and dissertations.

"This is an excellent text which covers all of the important research methods in the field, including randomised control trials. A strong component of the text is the inclusion of chapters on ethics and the future of paramedic research... The use of paramedic examples throughout the chapters will help students and other budding paramedic researchers connect with the subject matter and help them link theory, evidence and practice." Professor Peter O'Meara, La Trobe Rural Health School, La Trobe University, Australia This practical book provides a no nonsense guide for student and qualified paramedics looking to understand the key elements of research, and what it means for their profession. The authors explain key concepts and methodologies to help you get to grips with the nature of paramedic research and how it works in practice. 
 By drawing on a wealth of cases and examples, research is placed firmly in the context of clinical practice. The book will enable you to critique research and to engage in small-scale research projects of your own. Emphasising what you need to know, the book includes information on: 
<ul>
<li> Knowledge that underpins practice </li>
<li> Key elements of qualitative and quantitative research </li>
<li> Research ethics and evidence based practice </li>
<li> Undertaking a literature review </li>
<li> Dissemination of research findings </li>
<li> Considerations of the future for paramedic research</li>
</ul> Written by experienced lecturers, the authors offer practical advice and tips to more advanced researchers on getting work published and giving oral and poster presentations at conferences. Contributors: Jayne Cutter, Gary Rolfe, Megan Rosser, Julia Williams, Malcolm Woollard

A student textbook which examines the broad principles of providing radiotherapy treatment. The main author (Griffiths) is internationally reputed for her work on quality control in the delivery of radiotherapy treatment. Following the recent well publicised incidents of inaccurate dosages being given to patients, and poor monitoring leading to failure to recognise the errors, quality control has become the main area of concern for radiotherapy Key Features: Covers the principles and issues of concern to those providing radiotherapy treatment delivery, dosage calculations, treatment planning, quality assurance; Links relevant theory from physics and oncology with daily technical practice as seen in radiotherapy department; Includes descriptions of and use of radiotherapy machines and equipment in current use; Ideal companion volume to Walter & Miller's Short Textbook of Radiotherapy. With Wilks: Principles of Radiological Physics these three texts provide a complete package of texts for radiotherapy students.

This is the first quantitative treatment of elementary particle theory that is accessible to undergraduates. Using a lively, informal writing style, the author strikes a balance between quantitative rigor and intuitive understanding. The first chapter provides a detailed historical introduction to the subject. Subsequent chapters offer a consistent and modern presentation, covering the quark model, Feynman diagrams, quantum electrodynamics, and gauge theories. A clear introduction to the Feynman rules, using a simple model, helps readers learn the calculational techniques without the complications of spin. And an accessible treatment of QED shows how to evaluate tree-level diagrams. Contains an abundance of worked examples and many end-of-chapter problems.
