Handbook of Hope Theory, Measures, & Applications - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: This Handbook of Hope simply would not have happened without a small army of graduate students who, over the past decade, have come into my office one by one and suggested yetanother angle from which we could view hope. In that sense, what has come to be called hope theory has been like a gemstone that, when held to the light, sends shimmers of ideas about yet other possible implications or experiments. I have produced previous theories about reactions to personal feedback, uniqueness seeking, excuse making, and reality negotiation, hue none of chose have continued co produce the sufficiently intriguing questions to get me revved up for yet another experiment. Hope theory has been a great energizer at a time in my life when I have needed it. For the past seven years I have had a severe, unrelenting, and undiagnosed chest pain that is with me from my fim waking moments to the time th.at I slip off into sleep. Although I have been taking powerful pain killers, I think that none of those pills matches the positive effects of my getting lost in theory and research and work- ing with my students. At age 55 (by the time this book is published), I still enjoy the theory and bench science to the same degree that I did as a brand new 27-year- old assistant professor here at Kansas. And so, I have much for which to be th:.ink- ful.
Great Minds in Regional Science, Vol. 2 - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: This second volume in the book series, Great Minds in Regional Science, continues telling the story, begun in the first volume, of the intellectual history of regional science. The perspective provided is through the lens of the contributions made by individual scholars influential to the multidisciplinary field’s establishment and development. The Great Minds series is a project of The Regional Science Academy (TRSA). The contributing authors are, themselves, leading scholars in the field, many having already been elected to membership in the Academy and as Fellows of the Regional Science Association International. Each chapter gives the author’s contemporaneous view on the scientific relevance of a great thinker. The sets of Great Minds featured in the specific volumes of the series have been chosen to include a blend of well- known figures and others meriting wider recognition for having advanced—in some significant way—the field’s pedagogy and institutionalization. The books in the series, Great Minds in Regional Science, together with those in The Voice of Regional Science (general and strategic reflections on new topics in regional science) currently comprise the Regional Science Academy’s meta-series, Footprints of Regional Science, under the general editorship of Kingsley Haynes, Karima Kourtit, and Peter Nijkamp. Since early 2016, highly successful series of sessions sponsored by the Academy have been held at locations throughout the world and featuring mini-lectures on topics germane to the two constituent book series. The chapters published in this volume of Great Minds in Regional Science derive from these earlier presentations
The Emergence of a Tradition: Essays in Honor of Jesús Huerta de Soto, Volume I Money and the Market Process - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: housands of leaflets rained down on the theater goers. The Spanish civil war had just ended and there was as much uncertainty as to Spain’s future as ever. The military dictatorship of El Generalissimo Francisco Franco had held strong power over the country since the war’s end in 1939. Dissenters existed, quietly for the most part, biding their time until the country would be prepared for another change of power. Among these dissenters were the communists and their sympathizers. But other claims to the Spanish government also existed. For Jesús Huerta Ballester the obvious and rightful claimant was Don Juan, the count of Bar
History of Economic Ideas From Adam Smith to Paul Krugman - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: xv Introduction Economic Science is the Social Science that studies the activities of people associ- ated with the creation of goods and services, with the real-world economic and financial transactions, both at the individual and collective levels. Economic Science is based on one or more theories, which are shaped, co-constructed or replaced with each other with the aid of quantitative analysis (mathematics, statistics, economet- rics, experiments, etc.). Economic Theory, in turn, is an abstract description of the functioning of the extremely complex real world, where new scientific knowledge does not emerge from ‘nowhere’ but arises out of existing knowledge, in a dialectical relationship with the ‘existing’ and very often to its negation. Therefore, science develops and evolves as a ‘living organism’, and often one scientific theory is followed by another in continuity, extension or even opposition to the previous one. Therefore, in order to have a body of knowledge for understanding Economics, we must delve into the various individual ‘truths’ of each theory and, therefore, we must look back to the work of earlier thinkers, within a science that is constantly evolving. This journey of the formation of Economic Theory cannot be seen independently of its social context, since it is within this context that Economic Science has devel- oped, in response to the social conditions that prevailed and their evolution. Therefore, an Economic Theory without knowledge of the deeper internal as well as external causal relationships that have shaped the existing theories would lead to a sterile view.
Explorations in Marx’s Theory of Price—Why Marx Is Still Relevant for Understanding the Modern Economy Volume I: Money and Money Prices - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Preface This book is the first volume of a three-volume series borne out of a dissatisfaction I felt after writing Marx’s Theory of Price and its Modern Rivals, 2011. The dissatisfaction came from an awareness that a number of aspects of Marx’s theory of price required greater attention than I was able to accord them in this work. These included his analyses of money, profits, and the cyclical movement of the capitalist economic system. Although I was aware of this neglect while writing the book, I felt it did not do serious damage to my main purpose in writing it; to refute what I considered to be unwarranted charges of unintelligibility, inconsistency, and irrelevance levelled against Marx’s explanation of price. I now feel these omissions are consequential, and undermine my defence of Marx’s theory of price in the book. My hope is that this volume and the next will remedy the shortcomings of Nicholas (2011). As the title of the present work suggests its purpose is to expand on Marx’s theory of price by expanding on his explanation of money. The second volume builds on this by expanding on his explana- tion of profits and the movement of prices over cycles. The third volume extends this explanation to the level of the world market, explaining inter- national value and price, world money and exchange rates, and the cyclical movement of world market prices.
Living Better Together Social Relations and Economic Governance in the Work of Ostrom and Zelize - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: olitical economy is a robust field of study that examines the economic and political institutions that shape our interactions with one another. Likewise, social economy focuses on the social interactions, networks, and communities that embody our daily lives. Together, these fields of study seek to understand the historical and contemporary world around us by examining market, political, and social institutions. Through these sectors of life, people come together to exchange goods and services, solve collective problems, and build communities to live better together. Scholarship in this tradition is alive and thriving today. By using the lens of political and social economy, books in this series will examine complex social problems, the institutions that attempt to solve these prob- lems, and the consequences of action within such institutions. Further, this approach lends itself to a variety of methods, including fieldwork, case studies, and experimental economics. Such analysis allows for deeper understanding of social phenomena, detailing the context, incentives, and interactions that shape our lives. This series provides a much-needed space for interdisciplinary research on contemporary topics on political and social economy. In much of academia today, scholars are encouraged to work independently and within the strict boundaries of their disciplines. However, the pursuit of understanding our society requires social scien- tists to collaborate across disciplines, using multiple methods. This series provides such an opportunity for scholars interested in breaking down the boundaries of disciplines in order to better understand the world around us
Helix Network Theory The Dynamic Structure and Evolution of Economy and Society Interdisciplinary Integrated Economics Creating a Brand New “Micro-Meso-Macro” Paradigm - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Foreword by Gong-Meng Chen I first met and started working with Gan Runyuan, the author of the book, around April and May of 2002. Back then, I had just established the China Accounting and Finance Research Centre at Hong Kong Polytechnic University in Shenzhen. Because the research centre was not long established, it was necessary to introduce various talents. Gan Runyuan was one of the first groups of personnel recruited into the research centre. By 2003, with the active support of Cheng Si-Wei, I and my colleagues had founded the China Venture Capital Research Institute. During that period of time, Gan Runyuan worked as my assistant and participated in many tasks at the China Accounting and Finance Research Centre and China Venture Capital Research Institute. He was easy-going, serious in working, and I was always impressed. Later, Gan Runyuan left Shenzhen to Shanghai. However, he still kept in touch with me and participated in several forums organised by the China Venture Capital Research Institute. At the end of March this year, Gan visited Shenzhen. I learned that he had written an economics monograph, Helix Network Theory, and he invited me to write a preface to this book. He said that this is the ten-year brainchild of his toil, blood, and sweat. I did not expect him after leaving Shenzhen for more than ten years, not only reading that many books on economics and sociology but also spending quite a few years writing an econo
50 Literacy Strategies Step by Step Fourth Edition - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Young children write “All About . . .” books on familiar topics (Tompkins, 2012). They put together a booklet with four or five pages, write a sentence or two on each page, and add illustrations to elaborate the information presented in the text. Stu- dents read the book to the teacher, who helps them elaborate ideas and correct mechani- cal errors before they share from the author’s chair (see p. 10). As they gain experience writing books with one or two sentences per page, students can expand and elaborate the information they share on each page, gradually increasing the length to a paragraph
Polymers in Electronics Market Report - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Designers of electrical and electronic components have a wide choice of polymers at their disposal - cost is a prime consideration but competition in the market place is imposing ever more stringent specification criteria on the equipment designer who, in turn, is demanding significantly improved performance from his polymer supplier. This report lists the most commonly used polymers with brief notes on their properties. This report seeks to provide an overall picture of the varied use of polymers in the manufacture of electronic components. It has endeavoured to identify trends and future movements of the market. The pattern of polymer usage has changed and material formulations have had to be modified to conform with new European Union (EU) legislation relating to the use of hazardous materials in components. Furthermore there is now far more emphasis on recycling rather than landfill disposal and these are issues covered in the report. This report will be of interest to all those involved in using polymers to produce electronic components and to those who provide the raw materials for the production.
Handbook of Biodegradable Polymers - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Biodegradable polymers are niche market materials finding focused applications, including agricultural applications such as mulch films, flowerpots and controlled-release fertilisers and packaging items such as carrier bags and food wrapping and containers. They have the potential to provide a solution to a range of environmental concerns: decreasing availability of landfill space, declining petrochemical sources, and also offer an alternative option to recycling. Rapra's Handbook of Biodegradable Polymers is a complete guide to the subject of biodegradable polymers and is ideal for those new to the subject or those wanting to supplement their existing knowledge. The book covers the mechanisms of degradation in various environments, by both biological and non-biological means, and the methods for measuring biodegradation. The degree and rate of biodegradation is dependent on the chemical composition of the polymer and its working environment, and so there is no single optimal method for determining biodegradation. This handbook provides discussion of international and national standards and certification procedures developed to ensure accurate communication of a material's biodegradability between producers, authorities and consumers. The book goes on to consider the characteristics, processability and application areas for biodegradable polymers, with key polymer family groups discussed.آیا کتاب مورد نظر هنوز بر روی سایت قرار نگرفته است؟ جای نگرانی نیست! کافی است بر روی گزینه سفارش کتاب کلیک کرده و درخواست خود را ثبت کنید. در کمتر از چند ساعت کتاب شما را آماده خواهیم کرد.
