Nursing Inquiry. Special Issue Call for Submissions: Managerialism, Governmentality and the Evolving Regulatory Climate With an ever-tightening regulatory framework affecting all health professions, and a rapidly expanding efficiency and austerity approach to managing health service delivery systems, there is increasing evidence that the professional advocacy voice fundamental to nursing’s capacity to conduct its practice and to influence public and health policy is being constricted by complex organizational and systemic factors.
The wide-spread regulatory and administrative forces place increasing pressure on nursing education and practice systems to privilege standard practices and narrowly defined roles and functions in the name of patient safety and protection of the public. In so doing, they constrain nursing’s capacity to attend to such nurse safety issues as moral distress or to press for expanded roles and practice advancements on behalf of the societies nurses serve.

Book Review: Tissue Culture in Science and Society - The Public Life of a Biological Technique in Twentieth Century Britain. Duncan Wilson begins 'Tissue Culture in Science and Society: The Public Life of a Biological Technique in Twentieth Century Britain', by expressing hope that highlighting the historical interactions between the scientific and social worlds of tissue culture will provide current debates with some much needed balance and perspective.
In this, he succeeds admirably, effectively demonstrating that popular representations and scientific practices are mutually influential. Commentators would do well to bear this in mind when they make simplistic claims about the effects - positive or negative - of science communication. Wilson's account of the vexed relationship that Honor Fell, director of the Strangeways Research Laboratory, from 1927-70, had with science popularisation is a case in point. In his discussion of the cultivation of whole organs and embryos in the lab, Wilson once again highlights the role of popularisation of science and expert speculation in guiding the terms of debate.
