This book examines drinking and attitudes to alcohol consumption in late medieval and early modern England, France, and Italy, especially as they related to sexual and violent behavior and to gender relations. According to widespread beliefs, the consumption of alcohol led to increased sexual activity among both men and women, and it also led to disorderly conduct among women and violent conduct among men. Dr Lynn shows how alcohol was a fundamental part of the diets of most people, including women, resulting in daily drinking of large amounts of ale, beer, or wine. This study offers an intimate insight into both the altered states induced by alcohol, and, by opposition, into normal relations in family, community, and society.

The study compared male and female owned and managed SMEs and the impact of gender on the organisational learning taking place in these firms. This explores how the learning process is managed and developed, which staff are drawn into the process and how the organisational memory is developed within female and male run organisations. The managers described their own management style and these views were compared with those of their staff. In the process, patterns of internal communication were identified within female managed firms which aid organisational learning; which were not found within male‐run firms. As a result it is argued that communication needed for organisational learning is facilitated by female management processes even when the women involved have adopted ''male" management role models due to pressures within their business sector, while external links and networking need to be developed to aid success in these organisations.

Both the incidence of planning and the identification of female successors were lower than anticipated in this study of 128 companies with less than 50 employees. No company selected a female successor despite strong existing candidates, whether relatives or internal managers. Daughters were inappropriate for succession – they were "too good" for the workplace or were "doing something better", i.e. teaching, health care, etc. Although female relatives benefited from resources for holidays or home improvements, only male relatives were seen as "heirs apparent" in terms of work status and treatment. Female relatives were neither developed nor encouraged as managers, despite frequently acting as mentors and trainers for the selected male successor. Views of successors and non‐successors are expressed and concerns for policy‐makers identified given the potential disappearance of firms without successors, and the neglect of available potential female managers.
