British Nuclear Weapons and the Test Ban 1954–1973 Britain the United States Weapons Policies and Nuclear Testing: Tensions and Contradictions

British Nuclear Weapons and the Test Ban 1954–1973 Britain the United States Weapons Policies and Nuclear Testing: Tensions and Contradictions

In 1962 Dean Acheson famously described Britain as having lost an Empire but not yet found a role. Perhaps nowhere is this more apparent than in the realms of nuclear weapons. An increasingly marginal world power successive post-war British governments felt that an independent nuclear deterrent was essential if the country was to remain at the top table of world diplomacy. Focusing on a key twenty-year period this study explores Britain's role in efforts to bring about a nuclear test ban treaty between 1954 and 1973. Taking a broadly chronological approach it examines the nature of defence planning the scientific goals that nuclear tests were designed to secure Anglo-American relationships the efficacy of British diplomacy and its contribution to arms control and disarmament. A key theme of the study is to show how the UK managed to balance the conflicting pressures created by its determination to remain a credible nuclear power whilst wanting to pursue disarmament objectives and how these pressures shifted over the period in question. Based on a wealth of primary sources this book opens up the largely ignored subject of the impact of arms control on the UK nuclear weapons programme. Its appraisal of the relationship between the requirements and developments of the UK nuclear weapons programme against international and domestic pressures for a test ban treaty will be of interest to anyone studying post-war British defence and foreign policy history of science arms control disarmament and non-proliferation and international relations. It also provides important background information on current events involving nuclear proliferation and disarmament. | British Nuclear Weapons and the Test Ban 1954–1973 Britain the United States Weapons Policies and Nuclear Testing: Tensions and Contradictions

Abortion in the USA and the UK

Abortion in the USA and the UK

Recent years have revealed the different experiences of abortion in the UK and the USA. The United States has a higher abortion rate accompanied by a higher political profile for the issue. In fact one of George W. Bush's first acts in 2001 was to ban American funding for overseas organizations carrying out abortions. The USA has also experienced a higher degree of abortion-related violence with several people linked to abortion services being targeted and even killed. Compelling and enlightening in its approach this invigorating volume compares the two countries' abortion laws and outlines the distinctions. The usually conservative American society has a much more liberal abortion law than the United Kingdom whose female citizens can obtain an abortion relatively easily although in fact they do not have the right to choose. This stimulating volume examines the comparative positions taken by each country and makes important suggestions for the future. | Abortion in the USA and the UK

Regulating Open Banking Comparative Analysis of the EU the UK and Taiwan

Regulating Open Banking Comparative Analysis of the EU the UK and Taiwan

FinTech transformations have brought changes to the global financial markets and merit the attention of financial regulators across jurisdictions. This book is one of the first ones of its kind to look at open banking (OB). It examines regulatory approaches to OB by taking a broad view of comparative legal systems and through perspectives of transaction costs public choice and institutional design. The book looks at the legal implications by engaging in a two-tiered comparative analysis: comparing between compulsory and voluntary approaches to OB policies and comparing the legal systems between the West (i. e. the EU and the UK) and an Asian economy (i. e. Taiwan). | Regulating Open Banking Comparative Analysis of the EU the UK and Taiwan

Nonparametric Statistical Tests A Computational Approach

Nonparametric Statistical Tests A Computational Approach

Nonparametric Statistical Tests: A Computational Approach describes classical nonparametric tests as well as novel and little-known methods such as the Baumgartner-Weiss-Schindler and the Cucconi tests. The book presents SAS and R programs allowing readers to carry out the different statistical methods such as permutation and bootstrap tests. The author considers example data sets in each chapter to illustrate methods. Numerous real-life data from various areas including the bible and their analyses provide for greatly diversified reading. The book covers: Nonparametric two-sample tests for the location-shift model specifically the Fisher-Pitman permutation test the Wilcoxon rank sum test and the Baumgartner-Weiss-Schindler test Permutation tests location-scale tests tests for the nonparametric Behrens-Fisher problem and tests for a difference in variability Tests for the general alternative including the (Kolmogorov-)Smirnov test ordered categorical and discrete numerical data Well-known one-sample tests such as the sign test and Wilcoxon’s signed rank test a modification suggested by Pratt (1959) a permutation test with original observations and a one-sample bootstrap test are presented. Tests for more than two groups the following tests are described in detail: the Kruskal-Wallis test the permutation F test the Jonckheere-Terpstra trend test tests for umbrella alternatives and the Friedman and Page tests for multiple dependent groups The concepts of independence and correlation and stratified tests such as the van Elteren test and combination tests The applicability of computer-intensive methods such as bootstrap and permutation tests for non-standard situations and complex designs Although the major development of nonparametric methods came to a certain end in the 1970s their importance undoubtedly persists. What is still needed is a computer assisted evaluation of their main properties. This book closes that gap. | Nonparametric Statistical Tests A Computational Approach

Reappraising State-Owned Enterprise A Comparison of the UK and Italy

Reappraising State-Owned Enterprise A Comparison of the UK and Italy

After a quarter century of almost general condemnation and rebuttal of the entire nationalization experience it appears that there are second thoughts about governmental direct intervention in the economy. Reappraising State-Owned Enterprise deals with a topic often undervalued in the past decade but which now with the crisis of 2008-2009 calls for greater attention: the direct intervention of the State as Entrepreneur. The collection of essays in this volume – prepared by some of the leading authorities in the field – offers a contribution to this debate by providing a balanced assessment of two of the most relevant experiences of mixed economies the United Kingdom and Italy. In this respect a comparison between these two countries is very much appropriate since in both nations the State played an important role as Entrepreneur starting in the early 20th century. In Great Britain and Italy the heyday of the State as Entrepreneur was in the years right after WWII when it was used as a tool for promoting a modern society in which citizens acquired a stronger sense of belonging to their nations. The UK and Italy saw the State take on a too-pervasive role in the 70s; the two nations responded in different ways. In the 1980s Great Britain embarked on a harsh process of privatizations while Italians struggled on until finally submitting to privatizations in their nation in the following decade. The deep crisis of the final years of the 21st century forced both nations to reconsider State interventions as an appropriate tool in order to protect the wellbeing of the national economy. | Reappraising State-Owned Enterprise A Comparison of the UK and Italy

Developing Age-Friendly Communities in the UK Re-creating Places and Spaces

Developing Age-Friendly Communities in the UK Re-creating Places and Spaces

The ageing population is a global societal issue. Policymakers planners and the public third and private sectors must rethink how the built environment and services are delivered to meet the needs of a changing demographic. This is the first book to systematically review the evolution development and progress of age-friendly thinking in the UK with a primary focus on the real-world experiences of the people leading place-based initiatives. The book presents the findings of the first in-depth national study of age-friendly programme leaders in the UK completed in 2021 and provides insights into the development of age-friendly communities the formative influences from a social policy perspective the management challenges and the progress towards achieving age-friendly goals. Using primary interview data and narrative analysis the experiences of working with age-friendly programmes in different organisational forms are explored. The book promotes a greater understanding of what it means to become an age-friendly community in practice how the programmes have different development pathways and what influences different outcomes. Embellished with detailed narratives from practitioners informative tables and diagrams and figures throughout the book carefully gathers the voices of a diverse range of decision-makers and leaders associated with the age-friendly movement and provides unique insights on the drivers of change in specific localities. This is a must-read for anyone involved in ageing research or ageing policy and practice as it provides an insightful look into the real world of embedding this community development model in different localities to make a difference to the lives of older people. Topical themes include how these agendas connect with other issues such as dementia-friendly programmes and the work of the third sector as well as the growing challenge of what it means to be ‘friendly’ as a community and place and whether ‘friendly’ is becoming an over-used term in relation to place identity. The book has national and global interest for all communities engaged in age-friendly activity offering exemplars of best practice achievements in transforming local communities and views on the meaning of ageing as well as the age-friendly lens as an approach that champions the world through the eyes of older people. It offers a thought-provoking read for anyone with an interest in this expanding area of ageing irrespective of disciplinary focus. | Developing Age-Friendly Communities in the UK Re-creating Places and Spaces

The Shroud of Christ Evidence of a 2 000 Year Antiquity

The Shroud of Christ Evidence of a 2 000 Year Antiquity

The Shroud of Turin has been the focus of extensive study by historians and researchers since the beginning of the twentieth century. It is possibly the world’s most studied historical artifact generating a regular flow of new research publications. There is however one scientific test that overshadows all other research: the 1988 radiocarbon dating. This test dated the cloth to the period 1260–1390AD and was given such extensive publicity that most people today no longer accept the Shroud to be a true relic. Sadly very few people are aware that this test has been widely criticized for falling short of acceptable scientific standards. Similarly most people remain unaware of the wealth of compelling evidence that contradicts the conclusions of that test and supports claims of the Shroud’s authenticity. This book reveals extracts from secret discussions on dating evidence from the Shroud Science Group a private international forum of Shroud researchers and provides a detailed account of the dating evidence revealed by over a hundred years of research. It outlines reasons why the 1988 radiocarbon dating test continues to attract criticism from respected scientists and also describes a series of innovative flax dating techniques which have recently been used measure the age of Shroud material producing results that contradict the radiocarbon date. | The Shroud of Christ Evidence of a 2 000 Year Antiquity

Asphalt Mixture Specification and Testing

Asphalt Mixture Specification and Testing

This guide reviews the way asphalt mixture can be specified with particular emphasis on the test methods used to measure performance. The advantages and limitations of the tests are described for measuring the desired property and engineers can specify a test according to the material’s use. The book starts with a resume of specifications and their relative advantages and disadvantages for different situations. Then different properties are discussed in terms of: their specification; the test methods that can be used (primarily the EN 12697 suite of European methods of which the author has been responsible for drafting); the extent to which the results predict performance; the levels that can be achieved with different asphalt mixes and types; what levels if any should be specified in various situations and pavement layers; and which other properties are adversely affected by enhanced performance. The final section covers various aspects of sustainability with a strong emphasis on durability. Better understanding should enable clients and consultants who specify pavements to produce durable asphalt pavements more economically and also help asphalt producers and students trying to understand the black art of asphalt. | Asphalt Mixture Specification and Testing
