Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Paperback Edition. Paperback. Old social service stamp to front cover. This book addresses the challenges facing the personal social services in the 1980s. There is an increasing trend to break away from the large-scale, bureaucratic organisations and adopt decentralised structures. The story focuses on the experience of East Sussex Social Services Department, the first authority in the country to implement this policy by giving responsibility for all its main services to locally-based teams. What do we mean by social care 'on the patch' and how does it work? What are the implications of a decentralised structure in relation to management, staff training and available resources? The East Sussex experience is evaluated with reference to eleven pratical neighbourhood projects, which are described and analysed by members of the project team. The authors also consider the significance of the new policy in a wider context, as a 'model for change' with direct relevance for other agencies. 166 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Although often shunned for their obscenity and difficulty, rapidly changing tastes, combined with the supposed purity of their Attic Language, ensured that the bawdy comedies of Aristophanes gradually began to attract more scholarly and popular attention among learned circles in the later 16th century. This trend culminated in 1586, when Nicodemus Frischlin produced new and strikingly original Latin versions of five plays by Aristophanes. With this work Frischlin completely recast the place of Aristophanes in the Republic of Letters, forcing readers to approach him not just as an aid to Greek acquisition, but as a dramatist of tremendous contemporary relevance. Frischlin was able to rehabilitate Aristophanes by calling attention both to the practical advice his plays could give on the administration of a res publica, and to the light they could shed on serious problems concerning rhetorical education and political discourse within the troubled res publica that was the Holy Roman Empire under Rudolf II. This work aims to restore Frischlin's translations to their rightful place of honor within the broader reception tradition of Aristophanes and Old Comedy, while analyzing them within the context of Frischlin's own longstanding campaigns for educational and political reform.…
