Goods from the East, 1600-1800: Trading Eurasia - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Maxine Berg, Felicia Gottmann, Hanna Hodacs, Chris Nierstrasz خلاصه: The imperative of the long-distance seaborne trade of Europeans, from the age of exploration, was to acquire the goods of the exotic East – the silks and porcelains and tea of China, the spices of the spice islands and the textiles of India. Goods from the East focuses on the trade in fine products: how they were made, marketed and distributed between Asia and Europe. This trade was conducted by East India Companies and many private traders, and the first Global Age that resulted deeply affected European consumption and manufacturing. This book provides a full comparative and connective study of Asia's trade with a range of European countries. Its themes relate closely to issues of fine manufacturing and luxury goods in the current age of globalization. Goods from the East brings together established scholars, such as Jan de Vries, Om Prakash and Josh Gommans, and a new generation of researchers, who together look into the connections between European consumer cultures and Asian trade.

Insolvent trading and fraudulent trading in Australia : regulation and context - Original PDF
نویسندگان: John V. Gooley; Mitchell Gooley; CCH Australia Limited, خلاصه: Separate legal personality was firmly enunciated by the House of Lords in Salomon v A Salomon & Co Ltd [1897] AC 22; [1895–9] All ER Rep 33. In that case, Aron Salomon had traded successfully on his own as a leather merchant and wholesale boot manufacturer for a number of years. At the time, the Companies Act 1862 (UK) required seven subscribers before a company could be formed. Aron Salomon was keen to have a company structure take over his business and, so as to satisfy the statutory requirement, Aron Salomon, his wife, and four sons and one daughter who were all adults each subscribed for one share in a proposed company to be called ‘Aron Salomon and Company Limited’. The company had a nominal capital of £40,000 divided into 40,000 shares of £1 each. Shortly after registration, the new company took over Aron Salomon’s business. The principal motive was ‘to extend the business and make provision for his family’: at 48. The price for the business was extravagant as it amounted to over £39,000 and was a sum which was described by Lord Macnaghten (at 49) as ‘a sum which represented the sanguine expectations of a fond owner rather than anything that can be called a businesslike or reasonable estimate of value’. The purchase money was paid in the following way: as money came in, sums amounting in all to £30,000 were paid to Aron Salomon and then immediately returned to the company in exchange for fully paid shares

Worlds Apart Trading Together: The organisation of long-distance trade between Rome and India in Antiquity - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Kasper Grønlund Evers خلاصه: Worlds Apart Trading Together sets out to replace the outdated notion of ‘Indo-Roman trade’ with a more informed perspective integrating the new findings of the last 30 years. In order to accomplish this, a perspective focusing on concrete demand from the ground up is adopted, also shedding light on the role of the market in long-distance exchange. Accordingly, the analysis conducted demonstrates that an economically highly substantial trade took place between the Mediterranean and the Indian Ocean in the 1st–6th cen. CE, altering patterns of consumption and modes of production in both India, South Arabia and the Roman Empire. Significantly, it can be documented that this trade was organised at the centres of demand and supply, in Rome and India, respectively, by comparable urban associations, the transport in-between being handled by equally well-organised private networks and diasporas of seagoing merchants. Consequently, this study concludes that the institution of the market in Antiquity was able to facilitate trade over very long distances, acting on a scale which had a characteristic impact on the economies of the societies involved, their economic structures converging by adapting to trade and the market.

نویسندگان: Stephen Boyd خلاصه: Our investments will be in a universe of n assets, along with an associated cash account. We let ht ∈ Rn+1 denote the portfolio (or vector of positions or holdings) at the beginning of time period t, where (ht)i is the dollar value of asset i at the beginning of time period t, with (ht)i < 0 meaning a short position in asset i, for i = 1, . . . , n. The portfolio is long-only when the asset holdings are all nonnegative, i.e., (ht)i ≥ 0 for i = 1, . . . , n. The value of (ht)n+1 is the cash balance, with (ht)n+1 < 0 meaning that money is owed (or borrowed). The dollar value for the assets is determined using the reference prices pt ∈ Rn +, defined as the average of the bid and ask prices at the beginning of time period t. When (ht)n+1 = 0, the portfolio is fully invested, meaning that we hold (or owe) zero cash, and all our holdings (long and short) are in assets. Total value, exposure, and leverage. The total value (or net asset value, NAV) vt of the portfolio, in dollars, at time t is vt = 1T ht, where 1 is the vector with all entries one. (This is not quite the amount of cash the portfolio would yield on liquidation, due to transaction costs, discussed below.) Throughout this paper we will assume that vt > 0, i.e., the total portfolio value is positive. The vecto

Practical Guide to High Performance Engineering Plastics - Original PDF
Practical Guide to High Performance Engineering Plastics - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Kemmish, David J. خلاصه: High performance engineering plastics are used in a vast range of applications and environments. They are becoming increasingly important because of trends towards more reliable and higher performance machines and devices. This book gives readers a working knowledge and understanding of high performance engineering plastics. It starts with a simple, practical overview of key properties and principles. In each of the chapters there are sections on production chemistry, product forms, properties, processing and applications. There is a strong bias towards materials and concepts which are used in practice. The materials covered include high performance Polyethersulfones, Polyetherimides, Polyphthalamides, Polyphenylene Sulfide, Polyaryletherketones, Polyamideimides, Polyimides, Polybenzimidazole, Liquid Crystalline Polyesters and Perfluoropolymers. The reader will develop the ability to understand why materials are chosen for certain applications, why those materials have particular properties and how those properties can be modified. This will facilitate conversations with both materials suppliers and end users. It will help to identify the best and most cost effective solutions.
