With the consolidation of the European Union and the opening of the Channel Tunnel, how can Britain develop a central place in Europe and ensure its future prosperity? Britain on the Edge of Europe describes Britain's post-war involvement with the continent amd assesses the country's chances of enjoying the benefits of the projected European boom. Analysing the economic and political effects of Britain's edge-location, the author challenges orthodox notions of distance, cost and competitiveness and assumptions about the likely regional impact on Britain. At a time when British expectations of Europe are very much in the balance, Britain on the Edge of Europe puts the country's trade position into perspective.

Review :
"...The program designed by these researchers has yielded some of the highest short- and long-term cessation rates of any intervention... The American Heart Association has adopted this intervention, which also speaks to its validity, reliability, credibility, and success…some will buy this book simply because of who the authors are… I would recommend this book to health professionals involved with...smoking cessation… A book like this is long overdue."

To my knowledge, there are no books that present practical, "how-to" guidelines...of evidence-based interventions for smoking cessation... I wish I had the book two years ago... I would...recommend it to colleagues and students."
