With the government's drive for unemployment and industry's search for competitiveness, the UK is engaged as never before in improving its industrial skills base. From welfare to work schemes to executive development programmes, a wide range of initiatives and new practices have been launched. This text aims to provide senior executives and HR professionals with an assessment of current best practice and a guide to government and private sector provision. It is supported by a selective directory of training providers and resources. The text is based on the former "Training and Enterprise Directory", but has been refocused to address the issues closest to the heart of UK industry.

London's Clubland charts the evolution of St James's by exploring the social and cultural history of the city's most prestigious district, and explores the tensions between the world of privilege and an emerging public realm over three centuries. The core of what we call St James’s dates from the late seventeenth century, when large estates were leased by the Crown to the landed gentry after the Restoration of the monarchy in 1660. St James’s clubs, coffee houses and institutions were shaped by political conflicts between Whig and Tory, and between the Jacobite supporters seeking to revive a Stuart monarchy following the protestant Hanoverian succession. Clubland’s institutions echo the conflicts of the Napoleonic wars and the rise of dandyism, gambling, and prostitution. By the Victorian era, St James’s represented Britain’s emerging role as an Imperial power. This sparked the rise of a new cosmopolitan middle class for whom St James’s became a luxury shopping destination, offering a decadent West End nightlife, complete with an array of now-famous clubs, the history of which appear in these pages.

‘A tour of gentleman’s clubs from their rowdy beginnings to their stately present’ The Times ‘This book vividly captures clubland’s brief history in all its transient (and occasionally squalid) glory’ Daily Mail ‘Stephen Hoare’s genial history of this Clubland-at-home is a fascinating story told with wit and verve’ Professor Jerry White, Birbeck University of LondonThe core of what we call St James’s dates from the late seventeenth century, when large estates were leased by the Crown to the landed gentry after the Restoration in 1660. St James’s clubs, coffee houses and institutions have been shaped by enterprise, political conflict and Britain’s emerging role as an Imperial power. This is the historic heart of London’s Clubland.Over 300 years, Clubland has extended its reach to encompass Piccadilly, Mayfair, Bond Street, Covent Garden and Westminster. Ever discreet, the clubs do not draw attention to themselves, though their members are often highly influential individuals who are leaders in politics, the law, the media and much more.Palaces of Power charts the evolution of London’s Clubland, St James’s, exploring the social and cultural history of the city’s most prestigious district, and studying the tensions between the world of privilege and an emerging public realm over the last three centuries.
