Shocking thoughts: A reply to Anne Bottomley
No full textThe original publication is available at www.springerlink.comThis is a response to an article published in an earlier issue of this journal (Bottomley, A., Feminist Legal Studies 12/1 (2004), 29–65) in which an article by this author was cited as a prime example of a dangerous emerging 'orthodoxy' in feminist legal theory and subjected to a sustained and critical analysis. The purpose of this response is to reflect briefly on the rhetorical style and the theoretical orientation of that article, and to consider their worrying implications for the practice of feminist legal theory as a whole
100 CASES in Obstetrics and Gynaecology
No full textWhilst the advice and information in this book are believed to be true and accurate at the date of going to press, neither the author[s] nor the publisher can accept any legal responsibility or liability for any errors or omissions that may be made. In particular, (but without limiting the generality of the preceding disclaimer) every effort has been made to check drug dosages; however it is still possible that errors have been missed. Furthermore, dosage schedules are constantly being revised and new side-effects recognized. For these reasons the reader is strongly urged to consult the drug companies’ printed instructions before administering any of the drugs recommended in this book.This book aims to redress the balance with entirely clinical cases, highlighting the history and examination features with salient investigations. This allows the reader to place themselves in the position of the practising doctor encountering these scenarios in the everyday clinical setting

The Chemistry of Western Australian Plants. IV. Duboisia hopwoodii
No full textExamination of a large number of samples
of Duboisia hopwoodii has confirmed the findings of Bottomley, Nottle, and
White (1946). The methods used for the estimation of nicotine and nornicotine
are described and the results summarized. These could not be correlated with
locality, season, or soil type, and examination of fresh leaves showed that the
alkaloid content is considerably reduced on drying. ��
Samples of nicotine and nornicotine have
been prepared and ursolic acid and a quercetin glycoside have been isolated
from D. hopwoodii leaves.

Tails of the Travelling Gaussian model and the relative age effect: Tales of age discrimination and wasted talent.
No full textThe Relative Age Effect (RAE) documents the inherent disadvantages of being younger rather than older in an age-banded cohort, typically a school- or competition-year, to the detriment of career-progression, earnings and wellbeing into adulthood. We develop the Tails of the Travelling Gaussian (TTG) to model the mechanisms behind RAE. TTG has notable advantages over existing approaches, which have been largely descriptive, potentially confounded, and non-comparable across contexts. In Study 1, using data from the UK's Millennium Cohort Study, we investigate the different levels of RAE bias across school-level academic subjects and "personality" traits. Study 2 concerns biased admissions to elite English Premier League soccer academies, and shows the model can still be used with minimal data. We also develop two practical metrics: the discrimination index (ID), to quantify the disadvantages facing cohort-younger children; and the wastage metric (W), to quantify the loss through untapped potential. TTG is sufficiently well-specified to simulate the consequences of ID and W for policy change

Property and Couple Relationships: What does Community of Property have to offer English Law?
No full textThis is the author version of a work accepted for publication by Hart Publishing, submitted in accordance with the Publisher's self archiving policy. The definitive version was published by Hart Publishing in 2009 as Chapter 3 of Changing Contours of Domestic Life, Family and Law - Caring and Sharing, edited by: Anne Bottomley, Simone Wong. The definitive version is available via the DOI in this recordCouple relationships, particularly where a home is shared, are most often economic as well as emotional relationships involving financial dependency or inter-dependency. Among the traditional functions of family law, at its interface with property law, has been the need to protect the more dependent, weaker economic spouse, typically the wife. This has been done in different ways in different jurisdictions with changes over time. Yet there is a particular division of approach between common law jurisdictions and European civil law jurisdictions which it is now timely to re-examine given the changing face of families and their financial dynamics in the 21st century and the challenge this represents for family law across Europe and beyond
Sound Streams: A Cultural History of Radio-Internet Convergence, Andrew J. Bottomley (2020)
No full textMedia and communication history tends to repeat itself: criticism and excitement welcomed every new media, from the printing press to the internet (Kovarik 2011). Radio, in particular, has survived to continuous death prophecies (Starkey 2011), but managed to converge to internet and digital media since 1990s. This is the basic historical background of Andrew Bottomley’s new book Sound Streams: A Cultural History of Radio-Internet Convergence. In doing so, Bottomley does not offer a romantic vision towards the internet and its potentialities for radio and audio productions. The author provides a set of crucial ideas in each of the seven chapters, thus presenting very accurate case studies. This is actually how the book becomes a hypertext of stories, personalities and inspirations
