Why Your World Is About to Get aWhole Lot Smaller is a powerful and provocative book thatexplores what the new global economy will look like and what itwill mean for all of us.

Galbraith's classic on the "economics of abundance" is, in thewords of the New York Times, "a compelling challenge toconventional thought." With customary clarity, eloquence, andhumor, Galbraith cuts to the heart of what economic security means(and doesn't mean) in today's world and lays bare the hazards ofindividual and societal complacence about economic inequity. While"affluent society" and "conventional wisdom" (first used in thisbook) have entered the vernacular, the message of the book has notbeen so widely embraced--reason enough to rediscover The AffluentSociety.

Based on the author's graduate course taught over many years inseveral physics departments, this book takes a 'reductionist' viewof statistical mechanics, while describing the main ideas andmethods underlying its applications. It implicitly assumes that thephysics of complex systems as observed is connected to fundamentalphysical laws represented at the molecular level by Newtonianmechanics or quantum mechanics. Organised into three parts, thefirst section describes the fundamental principles of equilibriumstatistical mechanics. The next section describes applications tophases of increasing density and order: gases, liquids and solids;it also treats phase transitions. The final section deals withdynamics, including a careful account of hydrodynamic theories andlinear response theory. This textbook is suitable for a one yeargraduate course in statistical mechanics for physicists, chemistsand chemical engineers. Problems are included following eachchapter, with solutions to selected problems provided.

This book expands our understanding of the distinctive policyanalysis produced between 1919 and 1950 by economists and othersocial scientists for four major international organizations: theLeague of Nations, the International Labor Organization, the Bankfor International Settlements, and the United Nations. Thesepractitioners included some of the twentieth century's eminenteconomists, including Cassel, Haberler, Kalecki, Meade,Morgenstern, Nurkse, Ohlin, Tinbergen, and Viner. Irving Fisher andJohn Maynard Keynes also influenced the work of theseorganizations. Topics covered include: the relationship betweeneconomics and policy analysis in international organizations;business cycle research; the role and conduct of monetary policy;public investment; trade policy; social and labor economics;international finance; the coordination problem in internationalmacroeconomic policy; full employment economics; and therich-country-poor-country debate. Normative agendas underlyinginternational political economy are

This book explains how changing technology and economizingbehaviour induce vast changes in productivity, resource allocation,labour utilization, and patterns of living. Economic growth is seenas a process by which businesses, regimes, countries, and the wholeworld pass through distinct epochs, each one emerging from itspredecessor, each one creating the conditions for its successor.Viewed from a long-run perspective, growth must be characterized asan explosive process, marked by turbulent transitions in social andpolitical life as societies adapt to new opportunities, the demiseof old ways of living, and to the vast increase and redistributionof human populations. The book is based on a synthesis of classicaleconomics and contemporary concepts of adaptation and economicevolution. Although it is based on analytical methods, the text hasbeen stripped of all equations and with few exceptions is devoid oftechnical jargon.

There is a vigorous debate about the merits of globalisationfor developing countries. Based on numerous focus-group discussionsand over 10,000 interviews, this book studies economic and culturalopenness from the perspective of the public in four developing or'transitional' countries: Vietnam, (South) Korea, the CzechRepublic and Ukraine (both before and after the Orange Revolution).It finds many supporters of opening up, but also many who arediscontented with its downsides and who expect states to tackle theexploitation and unfairness that accompany it. Among the mostfervent enemies of openness there is support not just for peacefulpublic protest to tackle the problems it brings, but for violenceor sabotage. The methodology provides a unique opportunity for thepublic in developing countries to 'speak with their own voices'about markets and openness – and highlights the subtlety,ambiguity, tensions, conflicts and emotion that statistics alonefail to capture.

Which is more dangerous, a gun or a swimming pool? What do schoolteachers and sumo wrestlers have in coommon? Why do drug dealers still live with their mums? How much do parents really matter? These may not sound like typical questions for an economist to ask. But Steven D. Levitt is not a typical economist. He is a much-heralded scholar who studies the stuff and riddles of everyday life - from cheating and crime to sports and child rearing - and whose conclusions regularly turn the conventional wisdom on its head. He usually begins with a mountain of data and a simple, unasked question. Some of these questions concern life-and-death issues; others have an admittedly freakish quality. Thus the new field of study contained in this book:Freakonomics 作者简介 Steveb D. Levitt teaches economics at the University of Chicago. He recently received the John Bates Clark Medal, awarded every two years to the best American economist under forty. Stephen J. Dubner lives in N

In the classroom, ABC looks like a great way to manage acompany’s resources. But many executives who have tried toimplement ABC on a large scale in their organizations have foundthe approach limiting and frustrating. Why? The employee surveysthat companies used to estimate resources required for businessactivities proved too time-consuming, expensive, and irritating toemployees. This book shows you how to implement time-driven activity-basedcosting (TDABC), an easier and more powerful way to implement ABC.You can now estimate directly the resource demands imposed by eachbusiness transaction, product, or customer. The payoff? You spendless time and money obtaining and maintaining TDABC data—and moretime addressing problems that TDABC reveals, such as inefficientprocesses, unprofitable products and customers, and excesscapacity. The authors also show how to use TDABC to link strategicplanning to operational budgeting, to enhance the due diligenceprocess for mergers and acquisitions, and to supp
