Acknowledgements

As this research project was decided and organized after discussions with Dr. Felicity Cobbing and Dr. Carol Bell, I would like to thank them both not only for the academic advise at various stages, but also for their friendship and their help at all times. I should also express my gratitude to the PEF Grants Committee for awarding me the research grant that allowed me to visit London and work at the PEF. Finally, Mrs Ivona Lloyd-Jones and all staff members and volunteers made my time there more than pleasant at the very hospitable premises of the PEF, so I am indebted to you all.
