Abstract
Ed Justin Davis Smith, Colin Rochester, Rodney Hedley Routledge, pounds sterling13.99, pp 260 ISBN 0 415 09922 6 In the past family doctors could go for months, and hospital doctors years, without much contact with voluntary organisations: now this is set to change. An Introduction to the Voluntary Sector shows how the role of voluntary organisations in society has already shown surprising growth, and there may be more to come.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
