Finally-a strategic guide for men about menopause! When it comes to this confusing time in a woman's life, men around the globe continually ask the following questions: what is menopause, who is this menopausal woman, how long does this menopause "thing" last, and most importantly, what strategies can a male use to deal with these issues? Decoding the Enigma: His Guide to Her Menopause provides clear answers to these questions-and many more-from a nonmedical perspective by offering manageable approaches that can be implemented throughout the menopausal process. Psychologists Robert M. Chell, PhD, and Jane Cooper, MA, dispel commonly-held myths about menopause, including the myth that menopause begins during middle age. Many women in their midthirties begin the process known as perimenopause, the first phase of menopause. Therefore, menopause is not the sole dominion of the aging matron. Women experience menopause differently. There are some who are symptom-free and others who suffer a myriad of physiological and psychological reactions. Decoding the Enigma provides strategies for men that are specific to and consistent with the unique temperament and orientations of the women in their lives.

Although there are plenty of books devoted to small business and management research, few give much attention to the small enterprise. This book focuses systematically on researching the small firm, from basic issues of definition, to selecting topics and research designs, to fieldwork problems, data analysis and finally, writing and presenting results. The discussion is set in the wider context of issues and problems in business research. Quantitative and especially qualitative approaches are explored and illustrated by drawing in depth on a wide range of research on the small enterprise. The result is an extensive resource book for researchers at all levels to draw upon in planning and conducting effective research.

Innovation, entrepreneurship, knowledge, and human capital are widely acknowledged as key levers of development. Yet what are the sources of these factors, and why do they differ in their endowment across regions? Motivated by a belief that theories of economic development can move beyond the generally accepted explanations of location and the organization of industries and capital, this book establishes a behavioural theory of economic development illustrating that differences in human behaviour across cities and regions are a significant deep-rooted cause of uneven development. Fusing a range of concepts relating to culture, psychology, human agency, institutions, and power, it proposes that the long-term differentials in economic development between cities and regions, both within and across nations, is strongly connected to the underlying forms of behaviour enacted by humans on an individual and collective basis. Given a world of finite and limited resources, coupled with a rapidly growing population — especially in cities and urban regions — human behaviour, and the expectations and preferences upon which it is based, are central to understanding how notions of development may change in coming years. This book provides a novel theory of the role of psychocultural context and human behavioural and institutional frameworks in uneven economic development on a global scale.

This title was first published in 2000: The first book which brings together and interprets both the theoretical concepts associated with the study of networks in the business world, and the policy applications being applied to the practical building and development of such networks. It maps the changes in the culture of economic development policy that occurred in the UK during the 1990s, incorporating a detailed assessment of the contribution that the Training and Enterprise Councils made to business support policies. The book is published at a time when network and cluster building has risen to the top of economic development agendas not only in UK, but in many countries throughout the world. It offers the most detailed insight so far available into the structure, motivations and processes involved in developing business networks through institutional intervention. The book is relevant to anyone with an interest in business policy and theory.
