Under hösten 2006 genomförde Piratförlaget en kampanj för boken ?Edward Finnigans upprättelse? där förlaget hyrde säljplatser i ett 20-tal bokhandlar. Detta var helt nytt i bokbranschen och beskrevs som kontroversiellt av branschtidningen Svensk Bokhandel. Uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka hur uthyrning av säljyta i butik uppfattas av svenska bokhandlare och förlag samt vilka effekter det kan få för sales promotion. Då bokbranschen ser annorlunda ut än övriga dagligvaruhandeln anser vi att det är intressant att sammankoppla uthyrning av säljyta till sales promotion vilket, enligt vår uppfattning, inte används i någon större omfattning i bokhandeln.Uppsatsens teoretiska bakgrund består i huvudsak av Sudhir & Raos (2006) teori som behandlar fördelar och nackdelar med ?slotting allowances?, vilket är den engelska termen för uthyrning av säljyta.

The aim of the thesis was to identify whether, and if so how, aspects of sexual health (reproductive health and cohabitation) are compiled in the National Quality Register and identify reasons for this. A quantitative method has been applied to go through the registers annual reports. In the first part of the thesis, the registers annual reports was mapped with the help of a checklist designed through World Health Organizations (WHO) definition of sexual health. In the second part, a questionnaire was sent to those responsible for each register to find reasons to why and how sexual health is included in the National Quality Registers. The result shows that sexual health is not usually included in the register data, although the survey showed that most registers brought up aspects that could affect the current target group's sexual health.

The purpose with this study is to analyze and synthesize the results about how HIV-positive women describe and experience sexual health. The meta-synthesis follows Noblit and Hare´s method of meta-ethnography and additional use of Walsh and Downe´s checklist to appraise qualitative articles.
