The Theatre of Apollo
Glorified, through innumerable lights, flowing from the Beames of the bright APOLLO.Who, seated in a high, and glorious Throne, crowned with Lawrells, holdes in his hand a Crowne, the reward of some noble Poett, whom he pleaseth most to honour:Beneath APOLLO, on the right hand of the Theater, is placed the PRINCE his highness, in a Triumphant Chariott, drawne by Fame.Ouer against him, the Queene of Bohemia,with her Royall Progeny, all Laureat, in…

Geodemographics in Practice
Information can be a source of competitive advantage. As marketing has evolved from ‘mass marketing’ to ‘niche marketing’, spatially disaggregated market analyses have become essential for companies to be able to plan both tactically and strategically with regard to customers’ needs and competitive threats. The distinctive industry of companies providing geodemographic or market analyses developed in the mid-1970s and is now worth over £10 millio…
Research and Policy Review 21. Britain's Future Wealth
Any detailed review of Britain's research and development (R and D) would present generally a poor picture of our current and future prospects, especially in the intensely competitive world of new technologies and their commercial applications. It is argued that, although the issues facing us are complex and conflicts are inevitable, choices still exist; however, if the necessary strategic discussions are not forthcoming, existing choices will di…

Quantitative Methods in the Real World
As data become more readily available, it is agreed that the applications of quantitative methods will become increasingly important. However, the speed of this take-up is unclear at present; it is sufficient to say that it will be slow if current practices are not changed. Consequently, it is timely to discuss some of the practical issues. Among the issues addressed in this paper are software requirements, staffing implications, data availabilit…

Combined Heat and Power Generation Schemes
It is now officially recognised that the provision of combined heat and electrical-power generation plants in urban areas can improve the efficiency with which primary energy is consumed. An approach to assess the feasibility of such projects is exemplified by a case study of Leeds. Particular attention is given to the possible social and economic impacts, and it is argued that there is a need to go beyond a conventional financial accounting appr…
Data collection and analysis for geographical research
A recent course on research methods for data collection and analysis for first‐year postgraduates was the first of its kind in Britain. The deficiencies of a geography undergraduate's training are such that more courses of this type are highly desirable. At present research students have access to powerful research tools, but they cannot answer fundamental questions on their use. The course outline demonstrates that a wide range of topics can be …
