First published in 1998. This is Volume X of twenty-eight in the Sociology of Education series and presents a sociological study of the impact of war on English education from 1939 to 1943. Initially written in 1944. The relationship between the educational system of the social order is being increasingly realized, with the conclusion that education is one of the instruments for promoting the development of society, so if a new order is desired then a new order of education is also required. This book looks at the effects of the war and evacuation of children on the educational system via four processes: the disintegration, recuperation, adaptation and ferment.
The Education Act of 1944 launched an unprecedented experiment in the history of education in the UK. This book is a brief survey of the routes by which compulsory free secondary education was arrived at, as well as an examination of the position in 1949 and suggestions for the future.
This book examines what progress the Secondary Modern Schools had made in the mid 1950s, based on first hand observation and conversations with teachers, parents, school governors and education officers. As well as looking at their achievements, the author highlights the challenges that the Secondary Modern Schools had to deal with during the years surveyed.

Wave evolution on a falling film is a classical hydrodynamic instability whose rich wave dynamics have been carefully recorded in the last fifty years. Such waves are known to profoundly affect the mass and heat transfer of multi-phase industrial units. This book describes the collective effort of both authors and their students in constructing a comprehensive theory to describe the complex wave evolution from nearly harmonic waves at the inlet to complex spatio-temporal patterns involving solitary waves downstream. The mathematical theory represents a significant breakthrough from classical linear stability theories, which can only describe the inlet harmonic waves and also extends classical soliton theory for integrable systems to real solitrary wave dynamics with dissipation. One unique feature of falling-film solitary wave dynamics, which drives much of the spatio-temporal wave evolution, is the irreversible coalescence of such localized wave structures. It represents the first full description of a hydrodynamic instability from inception to developed chaos. This approach should prove useful for other complex hydrodynamic instabilities and would allow industrial engineers to better design their multi-phase apparati by exploiting the deciphered wave dynamics. This publication gives a comprehensive review of all experimental records and existing theories and significantly advances state of the art on the subject and are complimented by complex and attractive graphics from computational fluid mechanics.

This 1972 book takes Western Pacific island territories as a case study in the behavioural understanding of colonialism. It is argued that colonialism has many forms, and is not ended with the lowering of the metropolitan flag. It represents a conflict of systems, as worldwide forces impinge on local systems and seek to bring them into an essentially dependent relationship with metropolitan centres. The drive for independence is seen as the opposition to these forces, beginning with resistance to invasion, continuing through efforts to adapt the innovations and manage their impact, and going on to modern forms of political and economic nationalism. The book is based on field work and documentary research extending more than ten years; the emphasis on field evidence is unusual in a book of this nature.
In a world where everyone has incredible Elemental abilities, from shooting fire to making plants grow, Pasin is remarkable in that she... can't. Labeled an "Absent" and raised in an orphanage, Pasin's life has been defined by this lack--lack of abilities, lack of parents, lack of support. The only escape she finds is through her writing. Her life changes on her sixteenth birthday when she is arrested in the marketplace, accused of disturbing the peace and causing bodily harm to bystanders, all after an altercation she cannot remember. Swept to the palace, Pasin is made a lady of the court and no one will tell her why--not Erise, the half-elf sword handler instrumental to Pasin's situation, nor Oramus, the king. Pasin is told not to ask questions. Why would she? Her life is so much better in Oramus's palace. And he seems to be taking an interest in her....She is given everything she could ever want--except answers. Join Pasin on her quest for meaning and answers where secrets, power, and adventure combine in this YA Elemental Fantasy novel. Advance Praise for Burst: "Daria has crafted a vibrant coming-of-age tale. In a wondrous, magical, world full of secrets, Pasin must do the hardest thing imaginable - discover herself." -Trond E.
