The New Sociology of the Health Service - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Jonathan Gabe, Mike Calnan خلاصه: Health service policy and health policy have changed considerably over the past fifteen years and there is a pressing need for an up-to-date sociological analysis of health policy. Not only have policies themselves changed but new policy themes – such as evidence-based policy and practice, an increasing focus on a primary care led health service, a growing recognition of the need to address inequalities through public health policies and a focus on the views and the voice of the user and the public– have emerged alongside some of the old. Following up the very successful The Sociology of the Health Service, this all-new volume covers a broad range of key contemporary health services issues. It includes chapters on consumerism, technology, evidence-based practice, public health, managerialism and social care among others, and incorporates references to new developments, such as regulation and incentivization, throughout. The New Sociology of the Health Service provides a vital new sociological framework for analyzing health policy and healthcare. It is an important read for all students and researchers of medical sociology and health policy.
Sociology Beyond Societies: Mobilities for the Twenty First Century - Original PDF
Sociology Beyond Societies: Mobilities for the Twenty First Century - Original PDF
نویسندگان: John Urry خلاصه: In this ground-breaking contribution to social theory, John Urry argues that the traditional basis of sociology — the study of society — is outmoded in an increasingly borderless world. If sociology is to make a pertinent contribution to the post societal era it must forget the social rigidities of the pre-global order and, instead, switch its focus to the study of both physical and virtual movement. In considering this sociology of mobilities, the book concerns itself with the travels of people, ideas, images, messages, waste products and money across international borders, and the implications these mobilities have to our experiences of time, space, dwelling and citizenship.

The brain-shaped mind: what the brain can tell us about the mind - Original PDF
The brain-shaped mind: what the brain can tell us about the mind - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Naomi Goldblum, Shifra Glick خلاصه: In the same way atomic structures explain the physical properties of an object, neuroscientists are now learning about the human mind by examining how the neurons in the brain are connected to one another and their surrounding environments. Will brain scientists ever be capable of reading minds? Why are certain things harder to remember than others? The Brain-Shaped Mind addresses these and other questions to provide a clear account of how the structure of the brain influences the workings of the mind. Naomi Goldblum is a lecturer in psychology at Bar-Ilan University in Ramat Gan, Israel. She has studied neuropsychology with a particular emphasis on cognitive psychology.

Psychologism: The Sociology of Philosophical Knowledge - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Martin Kusch خلاصه: Martin Kusch explores the origins of psychologism through the work of two major figures in the history of Twentieth Century philosophy: Gottlob Frege and Edmund Husserl. Using psychological and historical reconstruction, Martin Kusch shows how the power struggle between experimental psychologists and pure philosophers influenced the thought of both Frege and Husserl; it not only shaped their agendas but also determined the success of their arguments for disengaging logic from psychology. This debate was crucial in the creation of the separate discipline of psychology. Kusch has provided an invaluable study for the understanding of a key moment in the intellectual history of the Twentieth Century.

نویسندگان: Joe Duarte خلاصه: Abstract: Risk management solutions for today's high-speed investing environment Real-Time Risk is the first book to show regular, institutional, and quantitative investors how to navigate intraday threats and stay on-course. The FinTech revolution has brought massive changes to the way investing is done. Trading happens in microsecond time frames, and while risks are emerging faster and in greater volume than ever before, traditional risk management approaches are too slow to be relevant.

The discussion dissects FinTech innovation to highlight the ongoing disruption, and to establish a toolkit of approaches for analyzing flash crashes, aggressive high frequency trading, and other specific aspects of the market. Today's investors face an environment in which computers and infrastructure merge, regulations allow dozens of exchanges to coexist, and globalized business facilitates round-the-clock deals. This book shows you how to navigate today's investing environment safely and profitably, with the latest in risk-management thinking. -Discover risk management that works within micro-second trading -Understand the nature and impact of real-time risk, and how to protect yourself -Learn why flash crashes happen, and how to mitigate damage in advance -Examine the FinTech disruption to established business models and practices When technology collided with investing, the boom created stratospheric amounts of data that allows us to plumb untapped depths and discover solutions that were unimaginable 20 years ago.

Trading in Uncertainty: Entrepreneurship, Morality and Trust in a Vietnamese Textile-Handling Village - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Esther Horat (auth.) خلاصه: This short ethnographic prelude provides a brief glance at the themes that will be covered in this book. Not only the vast spatial reach of trade relations, but also the resourcefulness and the flexibility of Ninh Hiệp people are remarkable. Quân’s family is not a single case, but fairly typ- ical in several ways: in many families trading has been an occupation that was passed down from one generation to the next, and along with it knowledge, skills, and networks. Travelling up the vertical ties within families are acts of physical, emotional and financial care. Thus, favours and affects reinforce each other in both directions. As the political and economic environment has undergone considerable transformation in the last couple of decades, the social and spatial organisation of trade has changed as well. Quân, Mrs. Quy and Mrs. Sửu all have or had to deal with challenges embedded in the context of a particular time. To be confronted with situations of risk and uncertainty—albeit different ones—is also what connects their experiences with trade: risking to be caught when trade was banned; fearing to lose one’s stall in the wake

Advanced Algorithmic Trading - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Michael Halls Moore خلاصه: The aim of this book is to provide the "next step" for those who have already begun their quantitative trading career or are looking to try more advanced methods. In particular the book will discuss techniques that are currently in deployment at some of the large quantitative hedge funds and asset management firms. Our main area of study will be that of rigourous statistical analysis. This may sound like a dry topic, but rest assured that it is not only extremely interesting when applied to real world data, but also provides a solid "mental framework" for how to think about future trading methods and approaches. Statistical analysis is a huge field of academic interest and only a fraction of the field can be considered within this book. Trying to distill the topics important for quantitative trading is difficult. However three main areas have been chosen for discussion: • Bayesian Statistics • Time Series Analysis • Machine Learning Each of these three areas is extremely useful for quantitative trading research.
