In the six years since the appearance of the first edition of Stephen Smith's book, labour economics has become a more firmly entrenched subject on the curriculum. Previously regarded as a subsection within industrial economics, there are now very few universities that do not devote a course to it in its own right. The focus of topics covered within it has also altered - the notion of human capital has now become much more central and microeconomic considerations are now as widely studied as macroeconomic phenomena. The second edition will address these changes and give greater centrality to microeconomics to reflect current course teaching. With superb features such as case studies, end of chapter questions and further reading sections, this new edition will prove popular with all students of labour economics.

The Legal, Medical and Cultural Regulation of the Body: Transformation and Transgression (Medical Law and Ethics)

The regulation of the body provides an important concern in law, medical practice and culture. This volume contributes to existing research in the area by encouraging experts from a range of related disciplines to consider the legal, cultural and medical ways in which we regulate the body, further exploring how conceptions of self, liberalism, property and harm inform and influence contentious legal and ethical questions about what we can and cannot do to or with our own bodies.

Life is not a flow chart. We weren't meant to master it on our own. We weren't meant to be mastered by it either. The discussion guides in the Transformation of a Man's Heart series put us in conversation with God and with one another to see how God shapes us in the ordinary experiences of our lives. Sex, Sex, Sex. For all the attention we give it, sex remains a mystery. This discussion guide, inspired by essays in The Transformation of a Man's Heart, looks at sex as part of a man's transformational journey. Useful in group settings or for personal study, Sex will open his eyes to the bigger picture of how sexuality influences who he is as a man. This study accompanies the book, The Transformation of a Man's Heart, compiled and edited by Stephen W. Smith.

Life is not a flow chart. We weren't meant to master it on our own. We weren't meant to be mastered by it either. The discussion guides in the Transformation of a Man's Heart series put us in conversation with God and with one another to see how God shapes and transforms us in the ordinary experiences of our lives. Sometimes we're tempted to look at marriage like flies on a windowpane. The ones on the outside want to get in, but do the ones on the inside want to get out? This discussion guide, inspired by essays in The Transformation of a Man's Heart, demystifies marriage for men, helping us see through the euphoria that led us to marry and the disillusionment that plagues us when our marriages don't turn out as we planned. This study accompanies the companion book, The Transformation of a Man's Heart, compiled and edited by Stephen W. Smith.

Life is not a flow chart. We weren't meant to master it on our own. We weren't meant to be mastered by it either. The discussion guides in the Transformation of a Man's Heart series put us in conversation with God and with one another to see how God shapes and transforms us in the ordinary experiences of our lives. Am I every going to change? he asks. If we're honest with ourselves, we'll admit that we're not the men we wish we were. Not only our dreams but our values are vulnerable to external forces and internal chaos: the wounds inflicted on us as well as the compromises we've allowed ourselves to make. In this discussion guide, inspired by essays in The Transformation of a Man's Heart, men will be reminded that wherever they find themselves, God is there with them, inviting them forward onto a new and better path. This study accompanies the book, The Transformation of a Man's Heart, compiled and edited by Stephen W. Smith.

Life is not a flow chart. We weren't meant to master it on our own. We weren't meant to be mastered by it either. The discussion guides in the Transformation of a Man's Heart series put us in conversation with God and with one another to see how God shapes and transforms us in the ordinary experiences of our lives. I do, therefore I am? What men do is incredibly important to them. Once they stop doing, they suspect, they will cease to exist. But although what we do is important to God, who we are--and who we're becoming--is more important. This discussion guide, inspired by essays in The Transformation of a Man's Heart, puts men's work--how men occupy their time--into the context of their relationship with God. He created us, he places a calling on us, and he claims us when our work is done. This study accompanies the book, The Transformation of a Man's Heart, compiled and edited by Stephen W. Smith.
