Satisfactory Ike

Memoirs of an Oil Man

By: Ian R. Campbell

These are the memoirs of Ian Campbell. An adventurous and humourous account of a man from rural Western Australia and his working career in the international oil business, from exploration in the harsh wildernesses of the Australian outback, Saharan Africa, jungles of Sumatra and Philippines, to the high-stakes corporate shenanigans in the heart of London. Often cantankerous and very ‘Australian’, Ian walks the reader through his life, from his earliest memories in 1932 up until his early retirement in 1989. He recounts his childhood with his many brothers and sisters in the West Australian wheatbelt, growing up in the hard times of the 1930’s depression, school life in rural Australia and University in the ‘big smoke’ of Perth, Australia. Graduating with a degree in Geology, Ian narrates how he sets off on an intriguing international career in the oil industry, exploring, living, working, and bringing up a family in many far flung and remote places around the world.

The Reformation of the Constitution

Law, Culture and Conflict in Jacobean England

By: Ian Ward

This book revisits one of the defining judicial engagements in English legal history. It provides a fresh account of the years 1606 to 1616 which witnessed a series of increasingly volatile confrontations between, on the one side, King James I and his Attorney-General, Sir Francis Bacon, and on the other, Sir Edward Coke, successively Chief Justice of Common Pleas and Lord Chief Justice. At the heart of the dispute were differing opinions regarding the nature of kingship and the reach of prerogative in reformation England. Appreciating the longer context, in the summer of 1616 King James appealed for a reformation of law and constitution to complement the reformation of his Church. Later historians would discern in these debates the seeding of a century of revolution, followed by another four centuries of reform. This book ventures the further thought that the arguments which echoed around Westminster Hall in the first years of the seventeenth century have lost little of their resonance half a millennium on. Breaks with Rome are little easier to 'get done', the margins of executive governance little easier to draw.

The Role of Business Ethics in Economic Performance

By: Ian Jones

The Role of Business Ethics in Economic Performance is a major edited collection of papers on why and how the conduct of business behaviour effects its commercial success. The book offers a comprehensive introduction to the issues looking at the lessons from economic theory, the institutional setting and the supply and demand side conditions which are forcing firms to take ethics seriously. Lord Eatwell considers the ethical foundations of the market economy. Mark Casson analyses the economic importance of leaders, while Simon Deakin and Frank Wilkinson empirically examine the role of contractual obligation in the UK. Adrian Cadbury and Norman Barry examine voluntary institutions and government's importance in setting ethics. Maurie Cohen and Russell Sparkes look at the ethical consumers and ethical investors increasing influence on business conduct. Finally Clive Wright and Neil Hood examine the internal organisation of national and transnational firms which increasingly build an ethical dimension into their corporate decision making.

Reforming Healthcare

What's the Evidence?

By: Greener, Ian,Harrington, Barbara E.

NHS reform continues to be a topical yet contentious issue in the UK. Reforming healthcare: What's the evidence? is the first major critical overview of the research published on healthcare reform in England from 1990 onwards by a team of leading UK health policy academics. It explores work considering the Conservative internal market of the 1990s and New Labour's healthcare reorganizations, including its attempts at performance management and the reintroduction of market-based reform from 2004 to 2010. It then considers the implications of this research for current debates about healthcare reorganization in England, and internationally. As the most up-to-date summary of what research says works in English healthcare reform, this essential review is aimed at anyone interested in the wide-ranging debates about health reorganization, but especially students and academics interested in social policy, public management and health policy.

Induced Responses to Herbivory

Induced Responses to Herbivory

By: Richard Karban,Ian T. Baldwin

Plants face a daunting array of creatures that eat them, bore into them, and otherwise use virtually every plant part for food, shelter, or both. But although plants cannot flee from their attackers, they are far from defenseless. In addition to adaptations like thorns, which may be produced in response to attack, plants actively alter their chemistry and physiology in response to damage. For instance, young potato plant leaves being eaten by potato beetles respond by producing chemicals that inhibit beetle digestive enzymes. Over the past fifteen years, research on these induced responses to herbivory has flourished, and here Richard Karban and Ian T. Baldwin present the first comprehensive evaluation and synthesis of this rapidly developing field. They provide state-of-the-discipline reviews and highlight areas where new research will be most productive. Their comprehensive overview will be welcomed by a wide variety of theoretical and applied researchers in ecology, evolutionary biology, plant biology, entomology, and agriculture.

Expressive Acts

Celebrations and Demonstrations in the Streets of Victorian Toronto

By: Ian Radforth

In nineteenth-century Toronto, people took to the streets to express their jubilation on special occasions, such as the 1860 visit of the Prince of Wales and the return in 1885 of the local Volunteers who helped to suppress the Riel resistance in the North-West. In a contrasting mood, people also took to the streets in anger to object to government measures, such as the Rebellion Losses bill, to heckle rival candidates in provincial election campaigns, to assert their ethno-religious differences, and to support striking workers. Expressive Acts examines instances of both celebration and protest when Torontonians publicly displayed their allegiances, politics, and values. The book illustrates not just the Victorian city’s vibrant public life but also the intense social tensions and cultural differences within the city. Drawing from journalists’ accounts in newspapers, Expressive Acts illuminates what drove Torontonians to claim public space, where their passions lay, and how they gave expression to them.

Fundamentals of Analytical Toxicology

By: Robert J. Flanagan,Andrew A. Taylor,Ian D. Watson,Robin Whelpton

The analytical toxicologist may be required to detect, identify,and in many cases measure a wide variety of compounds in samplesfrom almost any part of the body or in related materials such asresidues in syringes or in soil. This book gives principles andpractical information on the analysis of drugs and poisons inbiological specimens, particularly clinical and forensic specimens. After providing some background information the book coversaspects of sample collection, transport, storage and disposal, andsample preparation. Analytical techniques - colour tests andspectrophotometry, chromatography and electrophoresis, massspectrometry, and immunoassay – are covered in depth, and achapter is devoted to the analysis of trace elements and toxicmetals. General aspects of method implementation/validation andlaboratory operation are detailed, as is the role of the toxicologylaboratory in validating and monitoring the performance of point ofcare testing (POCT) devices. The book concludes with reviews ofxenobiotic absorption, distribution and metabolism,pharmacokinetics, and general aspects of the interpretation ofanalytical toxicology results. A clearly written, practical, integrated approach to the basicsof analytical toxicology. Focuses on analytical, statistical and pharmacokineticprinciples rather than detailed applications. Assumes only a basic knowledge of analytical chemistry. An accompanying website provides additional material and linksto related sites. Written by an experienced team of authors,Fundamentals ofAnalytical Toxicology is an invaluable resource for thosestarting out in a career in analytical toxicology across a widerange of disciplines including clinical and forensic science, foodsafety, and pharmaceutical development. Praise from the reviews: “This is an ambitious effort to describe in detail themany and varied aspects of the science of toxicological analysis.The 17 chapters cover every foreseeable aspect, from specimencollection through analytical techniques and quality control topharmacological principles and interpretation of results. Theauthors bring together a great deal of experience in the field andhave succeeded admirably in achieving their goal: "to giveprinciples and practical information on the analysis of drugs,poisons and other relevant analytes in biological specimens...".The book is very readable and quite up-to-date, and contains manyillustrative figures, charts and tables. Both the student and thepracticing professional would do well to study this materialcarefully, as there is something here for every conceivable levelof interest.” Review from RandallBaselt "This text comes highly recommended for any analyticaltoxicology trainee." The Bulletin of the Royal College ofPathologists “Overall, this book provides a comprehensive, thorough,clear, up to date and practical treatment of analytical toxicologyat a high standard. Understanding of the text is enhanced bythe use of many illustrations. Specifications, guidelines,and methods are highlighted in grey background“Boxes”. The many and up to date literaturereferences in each chapter demonstrate the authors’ thoroughwork and permit easy access to deeper information. Thereforethis book can be highly recommended as a valuable source ofknowledge in analytical toxicology both as an introduction and forthe advanced reader.” GTFCh Bulletin“Toxichem + Krimtech”, May 2008 (translated,original review in German) “Many toxicologists will add this important referenceto their libraries because it competently fills a need...” International Journal of Toxicology “The book is very well illustrated, easy to understandand pleasant to read, and contains a wealth of dedicatedinformation.” International Journal of EnvironmentalAnalytical Chemistry

Asthma Education

Principles and Practice for the Asthma Educator

By: Ian Mitchell,Gaynor Govias

This book comprehensively presents all the necessary information health professionals need to become Certified Asthma Educators. Competent asthma educators must possess a number of skills: they must have appropriate and sound medical and pharmaceutical knowledge; be proficient and effective educators who can influence their patients’ behaviors for the better; and, finally, they need the administrative and organizational skills needed to set up and run efficient clinics at their places of work. The book is divided into three sections to meet those needs: Asthma: The Fundamentals; The Role of Education; and, The Effective Asthma Educator. The first section covers clinical knowledge of asthma, with chapters including lung structure and function, clinical presentation of asthma, and environmental issues in asthma management. The second section delves into the role of educating patients and teaches readers how to best do that with an integrated approach between physician, educator, and patient. The third section looks further into educating techniques with a view of the learning process, considerations for instruction locations, and the role the educator plays overall. The final chapter in the book presents example cases for readers to assess the knowledge they have learned throughout. This second edition serves as both textbook and study guide for certification as well as a long-term reference publication. It has been fully updated from the previous edition with the latest treatment guidelines, medications, and disease monitoring methods. This is an ideal guide for asthma educators, those seeking NAECB certification, and any health professional involved with individuals who have asthma.

Clinical Spinoza

Integrating His Philosophy with Contemporary Therapeutic Practice

By: Ian Miller

Discovering Spinoza's early modern psychology some 35 years into his own clinical practice, Ian Miller now gives shape to this connection through a close reading of Spinoza's key philosophical ideas. With a rigorous and expansive analysis of Spinoza's Ethics in particular, Miller explores how Spinozan thought simultaneously empowered the original conceptual direction of psychoanalytic thinking, and anticipated the field's contemporary theoretical dimensions. Miller offers a detailed overview of the philosopher's psychoanalytic reception from the early work of German-langauge psychoanalytic thinkers, such as Freud and Lou Andreas-Salomé, forward into its Anglophone reception, influencing both mid-century humanistic American psychoanalysis as well as anticipating thinkers such as Bion and Winnicott. Covering key concepts in psychoanalytic theory and clinical practice, this book demonstrates how knowledge of Spinoza's philosophical work can help to both illulminate and improve modern psychoanalytic therapies.
