(1981). The Anglican Church in the Rhondda from the industrial revolution to disestablishment

In the first chapter the area under review is, first of all, looked at as it was at the beginning of the period, in terms of the various aspects and issues later to he given expanded treatment in the body of the dissertation. (They include, the eccle... Read More about The Anglican Church in the Rhondda from the industrial revolution to disestablishment.

The synthesis of aza-azulene derivatives
Thesis
(1981). The synthesis of aza-azulene derivatives

Various synthetic routes to the pyrrolo[1,2-a]azepinium system were attempted.
Chapter Two describes the preparation of some 1-azido-3- phenylprop-1-enes. Thermal decomposition of these vinyl azides did not result in any pyrrolo[1,2-a]azepines.
Att... Read More about The synthesis of aza-azulene derivatives.

A study of observational attainment in practical work in school chemistry
Thesis
(1981). A study of observational attainment in practical work in school chemistry

The research described in this thesis concerns three separate, but interrelated aspects of observation in chemical education at the secondary school level:
a) The effect of different modes of task definition and presentation upon students' observati... Read More about A study of observational attainment in practical work in school chemistry.

The transcellular transport of immunoglobulin G in the rat and rabbit yolk sacs
Thesis
(1981). The transcellular transport of immunoglobulin G in the rat and rabbit yolk sacs

An in vitro method, previously described for incubating rat yolk sacs for short periods, was adapted for the incubation of rabbit yolk sacs. It was shown that the endocytic properties of these two tissues are very similar as judged by their rates of...

The geology and geochemistry of the area west of Loch Killin, Inverness-shire
Thesis
(1981). The geology and geochemistry of the area west of Loch Killin, Inverness-shire

The area under study, which lies west of Loch Killin, Inverness-shire, was mapped during the years 1975-1978.
The continuous sequence of pelitic and psammitic metasediments comprises four formations and each is characterised by dominant lithotypes a... Read More about The geology and geochemistry of the area west of Loch Killin, Inverness-shire.

The molecular beam maser employing quasi-optical resonators: oscillation behaviour and spectroscopic applications
Thesis
(1981). The molecular beam maser employing quasi-optical resonators: oscillation behaviour and spectroscopic applications

The spectroscopic and oscillation properties of the molecular Beam maser, employing quasi-optical resonators are investigated. A new type of cavity, the roof-top resonator, is introduced for molecular beam work. The theoretical discussion reveals tha...

The geology of the Lough Guitane volcanic complex and associated sediments County Kerry, Ireland
Thesis
(1982). The geology of the Lough Guitane volcanic complex and associated sediments County Kerry, Ireland

The Lough Guitane volcanic rocks occur interbedded with the Upper Devonian fluviatile clastic sediments of the Munster Basin. Most of the volcanic rocks are shown to be associated with 3 separate volcanic centres, and consist exclusively of thick rhy...

Experimental studies of 9-15 year old children's use of categorisation in solving problems
Thesis
(1982). Experimental studies of 9-15 year old children's use of categorisation in solving problems

This thesis reports seven experiments on how children, aged 9 to 15 years, deal with problems in which categorizing may be used to impose advantageous order on the problem-solving process. The first three experiments present a total of 108 children w... Read More about Experimental studies of 9-15 year old children's use of categorisation in solving problems.

Objective knowledge in education
Thesis
(1982). Objective knowledge in education

This thesis examines and ultimately rejects the subjectivist critique of educational knowledge, according to which education is necessarily indoctrinatory because it cannot be based on objective knowledge.
In Part One discussion centres on the subje... Read More about Objective knowledge in education.

Thesis
(1982). The biostratigraphy and palaeoecology of Middle to Late Miocene Planktonic Foraminifera and Radiolaria from the equatorial Pacific Ocean (DSDP sites 289 and 71)

Planktonic foraminifera and Radiolaria from the Middle to Late Miocene of DSDP Sites 289 and 71 in the western and central equatorial Pacific have been investigated with the aim of explaining certain changes in the biota in terms of pre-mortal (palae...

Pinocytosis and protein degradation in the rat visceral yolk sac
Thesis
(1982). Pinocytosis and protein degradation in the rat visceral yolk sac

The rat visceral yolk sac (17.5 days gestation) was incubated in vitro to try to elucidate some of the factors important in controlling pinocytosis and protein degradation. An investigation of four closely- related ribonuclease molecules revealed tha... Read More about Pinocytosis and protein degradation in the rat visceral yolk sac.

Thesis
(1982). Changing patterns of educational development in Shropshire from the restoration until the first Treasury grant 1660 - 1833

This study aims to investigate the nature and extent of education in so far as it concerned Shropshire children in the period between the Restoration and the first Treasury grant to education. A vide variety of hitherto largely unexploited sources, b... Read More about Changing patterns of educational development in Shropshire from the restoration until the first Treasury grant 1660 - 1833.
