Introduction by Professor Virginia Berridge, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.Annotated and edited transcript of a Witness Seminar held on 12 October 2004. Introduction by Professor Virginia Berridge, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.The 1974 reorganization of the National Health Service was largely seen as a disaster for the public health profession. The post of Medical Officer of Health, with its links to local government, was replaced by the community physician, located within health services. The technician-manager rather than the activist role predominated: community medicine doctors carried little weight by comparison with their clinical colleagues. Chaired by Professor Virginia Berridge this Witness Seminar examined the decline and rise of 'public health' both nationally and internationally in the 1980s and 1990s: the impact of the 1988 Acheson Report on public health medicine on a demoralized profession; the role of new ideas about health promotion imported from the international scene; the rise of evidence-based medicine and health services research, and their impact on public health; and the movement for multidisciplinary public health (MDPH) as a new avenue for public health from the 1990s. Participants included Professor Sir Donald Acheson, Professor John Ashton, Professor Nick Black, Professor David Blane, Dr Tim Carter, Sir Iain Chalmers, Dr Aileen Clarke, Dr June Crown, Dr Jeff French, Professor Alan Glynn, Ms Shirley Goodwin, Professor Rod Griffiths, Professor Walter Holland, Professor Klim McPherson, Dr Ornella Moscucci, Dr Geoffrey Rivett, Professor Alwyn Smith and Professor Ann Taket.

Event experiences: design, management and impact
The papers submitted for this PhD by publication represent research centered on event experiences and their design, management and impact. They are the result of research projects that have produced seven published peer-reviewed papers and one book. The body of work has made an original, significant and sustained contribution towards the development of an emerging field of study in events. The work has made a major contribution towards furthering understanding of the human experience that results from the management of events, their design and their impact.
At the heart of this submission is a consideration for how events are experienced and what factors and components contribute to the depth of that experience. The majority of papers analyses and reflects upon the construction of experience settings (their design) and essentially seeks knowledge to identify the variables that shape any experience of events (Ryan, 2012). In doing so the research undertaken has embraced a less restrictive set of methodologies usually afforded by statistical exercises in favour of a more embodied, immersive and participative approach. This has included not only observation and autoethnography, but also reflection on that which has been observed. In turn this reflection and analysis has drawn upon a range of theories and models to advance understanding of the social occasions that we call events where human interactions with the designed programme and environment illicit a range of responses that may culminate in a memorable and unique moment in time. The research therefore touches upon the emotional response to event experiences, the study and interpretation of the meaning of events, and notably their signification to an intended audience. In the course of this research I have evaluated and reflected upon the study and practice of event management across a range of event types and genres. Seeking to initially clarify the role of design in creating event experience led me to questioning the paradigmatic model for event management and resulted in the development of an alternative consideration for event planning and management - Event Experience Design Framework (EEDF). Unlike existing models this places design as the central and pivotal driving force that inhabits all areas of the event management process and upon which all events should then be based.
The contribution of this body of work can therefore be summarised as follows:
1. Development of a paradigmatic concept that places design as the central and essential practice that underpins the planned event experience.
2. Theoretical positioning of how designing event experiences impacts on stakeholders
3. Recognition and application of theoretical models and tools relevant to event design and creativity, and further use of conceptual models to analyse experiential outcomes
4. Identification and awareness of the broader socio-cultural impact of planned events This submission provides evidentiary material that I have made a positive and meaningful contribution to raising the profile of events through research, teaching and learning by an acknowledged excellence in events management education and as a recognised (and first) National Teaching Fellow in Events. Furthermore, the submission provides a reflection on this research and development that has enabled me to make such a pivotal contribution to the field. It concludes with an outline of plans for the future

Graham Greene An Approach to the Novels
This study reveals Greene in a dual role as author, one who projects literary experience into his view of life and subsequently projects both his experience and its "literary" interpretation into his fiction; and it defines two phases of Greenes novels through the changing relationship between writer and protagonists. The first phase progresses from acutely sensitive, self-divided young men somewhat like the young Greene to embittered, alienated characters ostensibly at great distance from their creator. The second phase (1939) includes a series of "portraits of the artist" through which Greene confronts more directly the tensions and conflicts of his private life.Book Cover -- Half-Title -- Title -- Copyright -- Dedication -- Contents -- Introduction -- Acknowledgements -- GRAHAM GREENE -- CHAPTER ONE Protagonists of the First Phase -- YOUTH -- DIVIDED SELVES -- WOMEN AND REDEMPTION -- MARRIAGE IN THE FIRST PHASE -- THE LITERARY FRAME -- THE FIRST-PHASE PROTAGONIST AND THE AUTHOR -- CHAPTER TWO Letters and Diaries -- LETTERS TO VIVIEN -- DIARIES -- CHAPTER THREE A Gun for Sale -- A GUN FOR SALE AND BROWNING'S "CHILDE ROLAND" -- A GUN FOR SALE AND TENNYSON'S MAUD -- CHAPTER FOUR Brighton Rock -- PINKIE AS NAPOLEONIC STRATEGIST -- CHARACTERS AND NAMES -- BRIGHTON ROCK AS A FAUSTIAN NOVEL -- CHAPTER FIVE Protagonists of the Second Phase -- AGE -- CHILDREN AND CHILDHOOD -- SELF-DIVISION -- MARRIAGE IN THE SECOND PHASE -- CHAPTER SIX The Strategy of Allusion in the Second Phase -- TOWARD THE WRITER AS PROTAGONIST -- CHAPTER SEVEN Portraits of the Artist -- CHAPTER EIGHT Travels with My Aunt -- CHAPTER NINE The Honorary Consul -- CHAPTER TEN The Human Factor -- CHAPTER ELEVEN Dr. Fischer of Geneva -- CHAPTER TWELVE Monsignor Quixote -- POSTSCRIPT: "YOUR DREAM HAS BEEN YOUR LIFE. -- CHAPTER THIRTEEN The Captain and the Enemy -- FINIS -- Selected Bibliography -- (A) WORKS BY GRAHAM GREENE -- (B) CRITICAL AND BIOGRAPHICAL WORKS -- Index -- Permissions Acknowledgements -- PENGUIN PUTNAM INC. -- SIMON & -- SCHUSTERThis study reveals Greene in a dual role as author, one who projects literary experience into his view of life and subsequently projects both his experience and its "literary" interpretation into his fiction; and it defines two phases of Greenes novels through the changing relationship between writer and protagonists.
