            Book Description

            This book is concerned with dynamic relations between interregional division of labor, division of consumption and determination of prices structure within a perfectly competitive framework in spatial economy. Our analytical framework examines the issues related to interregional dynamics raised in the traditional regional economic theories as well as to provide insights into the issues related to interdependence between knowledge creation and utilization and spatial economies examined by the new international trade theory and new regional economic theory. The comparative advantage of our theory is that in providing rich insights into complex of regional evolution it uses only a few concepts and simplified functional forms and accepts a few assumptions about behavior of consumers, producers and institutional structures over space.

                                4 out of 5 stars Helps you understand how to win.......2003-12-04

                                Gregory's book is very helpful in understanding what factors can win an age discrimination action. His clear and concise case studies are used to illustrate the main legal points and how the courts have changed over recent years in their requirements for success. It has in several ways become more difficult to win age discrimination cases and Gregory explains how and why very clearly.

                                The book also helps one decide whether or not to pursue an age related legal recourse.

                                5 out of 5 stars An excellent resource to help you decide...........2003-05-19

                                if you wish to become a plaintiff, and as a source of information, wisdom and comfort, if you do take action against your employer.

                                Age discrimination in the year 2003 should be so silly, but it seems as though corporate America, for the most part, does not look beyond a five year horizon. In 5 years, when "boomers" begin leaving the workforce in large numbers, and employers can
                                no longer find qualified people, or even more important, qualified people with wisdom gained from experience, there will be an employment crisis again. Some companies have recognized this and geared their policies and opportunities accordingly. Most have not...most have gloried in a legal system, that, by its very bureaucracy and expense, guarantees anonymity for corporations because of settlement, and very few court challenges. Most employees are discouraged before they start.

                                Gregory's book is a valuable resource to not let yourself become discouraged! Highly recommended!

                                5 out of 5 stars The explanations are worth a thousand bucks........2002-05-14

                                There is very little written on the subject of age discrimination in employment that ventures to explain the whole process for the Plaintiff. This author is very credible to me both in providing behavior insights and process descriptions. It raises my confidence that older workers can gain a good understanding of the steps they need to take when they face the problem of age bias in employment.

                                4 out of 5 stars An important and timely book for anyone in the work force........2002-02-23

                                If you work for a large or small corporation, this book is a must
                                read. Gregory shows how corporations streamline their payrolls by
                                getting rid of their 'older' employees, thus reducing wages, benefits, etc. Younger employees earn less, so it's just a matter
                                of doing the math. Corporations use early retirement incentives,
                                whether or not an employee wants to stop working. A little slow at first, this book picks up the pace, and grabs hold of the reader with fascinating, real-life cases, from a lawyer who obviously knows his stuff. Read on!!

                                      This classic and inspiring account of the progress of the 7th Armoured Division from the sands of North Africa to the cold of wintery Holland and the mud of a German springtime. Based on official records, and written by one of the division's key officers, this book is an outstanding testament to the officers and men of an astonishing unit. The division's reputation was born in the desert. It first went into action against the Italians in 1940 and then, subsequently, fought Rommel's Afrika Korps in Montgomery's successful Western Desert campaign. It was during this period of intense fighting that the division won its affectionate nickname of Desert Rats. From there the division was transported to Italy and, later, Normandy and from then on was almost constantly in battle until the end of the war. The Desert Rats was written with official support, and with the help of most of the division's senior officers, and the author has been able to provide a unique insight into the workings of a formidable unit. The book stands testament to the unique morale of the division and is an enduring story of difficulties overcome. Major-General Verney served as a tank brigade commander in World War II and went on to command 7th Armoured Division in Normandy in 1944.

                                          The new 'Spearhead' series is designed to look at the cutting edge of war, dealing with units capable of operating completely independently in the forefront of battle. Each volume in the series examines the chosen unit's origins and history, its organization and order of battle, its battle history theater by theatrer, its insignia and its markings. Also covered are biographies of the most important commanders of each unit. Each title ends with an assessment of unit effectiveness - as seen by the unit itself, by its opponents and the light of more recent historical research. The books also include a detailed reference section with a critical bibliography, a listing of relevant museums and web sites, information about reenactment groups and memorials.

                                          The British 7th Armoured Division will be remembered best by its small red shoulder flash that depicted Jaculus Orientalis-the Greater Egyptian Jerboa. Hardy, highly mobile and most at home in the desert, the human Desert Rats proved masters of desert fighting- as have their modern day descendants, the 7th Armoured Brigade, now operating in Iraq. As part of O'Connor's Western Desert Force, the Desert Rats helped to destroy the Italian forces that had started the war in the Western Desert-the Italian Tenth Army being completely defeated at Beda Fomm 5-7 February 1941; then they fought toe-to-toe with Rommel's feared Deutsches Afrika Korps in a seesaw campaign that ended in May 1943 with the surrender of Axis forces in North Africa. Next they were involved in one of the major amphibious landings of the war in Europe as part of the US Fifth Army at Salerno, fighting on northwards through Italy, until withdrawn back to UK, to take part in the Second Front as a vital component of the spearhead of British forces in Normandy, landing at Arromanches on 7 June 1944. They had to learn new skills in the close French bocage countryside, so different to the limitless space of the desert. And they did so the hard way with heavy losses at Villers-Bocage. From then on the division was hardly ever out of action: advancing across Europe from Lisieux in France through Belgium where it relieved Ghent and, finally, on to northern Germany where it took the surrender of Hamburg. These tough troops were then honored by being chosen to go to Berlin to take part in the great Victory Parade of 1945.For all those interested in military history, the new 'Spearhead' series is an excellent account of each of the individual units. Written by acknowledged experts in the subject, each volume is a detailed account of the development and operational record of some of the most famous military units in history.

                                            'No division has contributed more to the downfall of the Axis Powers and to the total defeat of Germany. The Desert Rats saw service in the Middle East when Italy declared war on Britian in 1940. They fought with great distinction all through the long campaign which culminated in the victory of Alamein. They took a leading part in the pursuit of Rommel's defeated forces and in the final breakthrough to Tunis. The division was the first British Armoured Division to land in Europe when it took part in the assault landing at Salerno. It served through the Italian campaign till brought back to England early in 1944 to prepare the great assault on Western Europe.' So wrote the GOC of the Desert Rats, Major General L.O. Lyne, in Berlin during the Allied victory parades. The Desert Rats, the 7th Armoured Division, wore its famous insignia of the jerboa, the long-tailed rodent, with pride. The 7th, the most famous British formation of the Second World War, was Winston Churchill's favorite. Patrick Delaforce presents numerous first-hand accounts of the terrible struggle in Normandy including Operations 'Goodwood' and 'Bluecoat' and of the break-out and great 'Swan' to liberate all northern France and Belgium. He describes the taking of Ghent, and the long months of fighting in the Peel country in the Netherlands; Operation 'Blackcock', the crossing of the Rhine and the advance through Germany; the capture of Hamburg, and the Allies' final triumphant entry into Berlin.
