The concept of intermediation has existed for a long time and taken numerous different forms. In this introductory chapter, we will therefore start by examining the state of the art of intermediaries through a range of different disciplines (history, management, economics, health, sociology), highlighting their historical evolution and current forms. We will then present the different models and theories of intermediation and their development, to produce an appreciation of their similarities and differences and a comprehensive view of the subject. This will allow us, in the last section, to propose the framework for a general theory of intermediation, in terms of organisational architecture and the services provided.

Abstract The main aspects related to the analysis of sterol oxidation products (SOP) in foods are comprehensively reviewed. Special emphasis is placed on the critical and controversial points of this analysis because these points affect crucial analytical parameters such as precision, accuracy, selectivity, and sensitivity. The effect of sample preparation and the conditions of quantification by gas chromatography and liquid chromatography on these parameters are also reviewed. The results show that, in order to choose an adequate method to analyze SOP in a certain food, the analyst must consider its SOP concentration and matrix complexity. The term SOP includes both cholesterol oxidation products (COP) and phytosterol oxidation products (POP). The state of the art of COP and POP analysis is quite different; many more studies have dealt with the analysis of COP than of POP. However, most of the results presented here about COP analysis may be extrapolated to POP analysis because both groups of compounds show similar structures and characteristics.

This chapter is an introduction to theOxford Handbook of Information Structure. After introducing the goals of the handbook and a brief history of information structure studies, this introductory chapter provides the definitions of the key notions of information structure (focus, givenness, and topic) in Krifka (2008), which were used as the baseline for all the chapters of the handbook. The Handbook is organized in four parts: an overview of various linguistic theories of information structure in semantics, pragmatics, morpho-syntax and phonology (Part I); case studies of various information structure-related topics (Part II); the state of the art in the study of information structure from experimental perspectives (Part III); and chapters discussing information structure in selected languages or language families (Part IV). The introduction contains short summaries of each of the chapters in the Handbook.
