Pergamon Second Edition (6 results)

Cloth, 8vo, 22 cm, xiv, 328 pp, facs. From the blurb: "This is an updated and revised guide through the maze of British official publications. By describing these various publications within the context of the parliamentary and governmental processes from which they derive, John Pemberton demonstrates their value as sources of authoritative and essential information. The reader is shown how these publications can be traced through catalogues and indexes, and is thereby given a practical guide to their acquisition and use. This second edition takes account of institutional changes (such as the replacement of the National Assembly of the Church of England by the General Synod, and the creation of new administrative tribunals, like the Value Added Tax Tribunals) and of major new works on this subject. The text and guides to further reading have been updated. Recent developments have necessitated the replacement of several facsimile reproductions of specimen pages from key reference publications. A new chapter on non-HMSO publications has been added, because this important body of literature is increasing and presents particular problems of access. This book is of value to research workers and students of government, politics, law and the legal system, and public administration. Librarians and students of librarianship should always have a copy of this book close to hand." Contents include: Preface; 1. British Parliamentary Government; 2. Official Publications: Classification and Indexes; 3. Parliamentary Proceedings ; 4.
