Since it was first published in 1982 British Archives has established itself as the premier reference work to holdings of archives and manuscript collections throughout the UK. The 3rd edition has been extensively revised and enlarged with more than 150 new entries, further widening the range of the book. Entries are structured to show the archives of the organisation as distinct from deposited collections and significant non-manuscript material, and additional details of fax number and conservation provision are included for the first time. All the existing entries have been significantly updated, together with the select bibliography and list of useful addresses of various organisations involved in the care and custody of archives. The introduction provides an invaluable guide to researchers using archives, including a summary of the relevant legislation and a detailed description of the usual holdings of county and other local authority record offices.

The University of London celebrates the 150th anniversary of its first Charter in 1986, and this history has been produced in commemoration of the occasion. One of the leading universities in the world, and the largest universities in the United Kingdom, the University of London is a many-headed federation of different institutions. This sketch of its developing shape, structure and role, incorporates many well--chosen illustrations encapsulating the range of activities and institutions constituting a great federal university.Attention is paid to the earlier teaching institutions, especially the medical shoos attached to London's hospitals. The activities of the expanding metropolitan and imperial university are surveyed throughout Victorian times. The major reconstruction of 1900 which began the organic link between the various colleges forming the federal university is covered, and all the subsequent changes of the twentieth century are outlined. The background to the present difficult period of 'cuts' and restructuring is indicated.This illustrated history is a lively and well-informed overview of a complex institution -- or, more properly, an interwoven series of institutions and activities. It should prove of interest and value to all the many students, teachers and other members of the University of London, past and present, as well as to those who seek to understand the increasingly crucial role of knowledge in modern society.

In the late twentieth century, we assume a wide array of humanitarian and democratic privilege: health insurance, preventive medicine, equal treatment of rich and poor, equal rights for all. But in Victorian England these issues were just emerging. A nineteenth-century British physician, Dr. Thomas Hodgkins, was their committed champion; his battle ultimately cost him his career. Dr. Hodgkins is now best known for his description of the disease of the lymph nodes named after him, but he was also a reformer, an educator, and a Quaker. He was responsible for numerous medical discoveries. He actively advocated health insurance for the working poor. Throughout his life he espoused the humane treatment of the underprivileged, including minorities. His farsighted vision of medicine and society brought him into conflict with the establishment of the Victorian Empire- with many important medical, religious, and political figures of his time. This vision and struggle remain significant more than 100 years after his death. The authors, both prominent medical educators at Harvard University, have based this book on the hitherto unexplored papers and letters of Dr. Hodgkins and his family in the first major biography of this great nineteenth-century British physician. -- from Book Jacket.
