Description:
A rational expectations equilibrium with positive demand for financial information does exist under fully revealing asset price-contrary to a wide-held conjecture. Whereas a continuum of investors is inconsistent with fully revealing equilibrium, finitely many investors with average portfolios demand information in equilibrium if they can adjust portfolio size in an additive signal-return model. More information diminishes the expected excess return of a risky asset so that investors who only have a choice of portfolio composition or whose asset endowments strongly differ from the average portfolio are worse off. Under fully revealing price, information market equilibria both with and without information acquisition are Pareto efficient.

If you don't have anything nice to say, come sit next to me.......2003-02-06
Seidman uses the above quote in the chapter where he apportions blame for the S&L fiasco. This book contains a lot of entertaining passages, and considering it is a book about finance written by an accountant, that in itself makes the book unusual.
I found the book to be well written, and very up-front about the authors biases. It was refreshing that the hidden agenda was right out in the open for everyone to inspect, just the way the author maintains that good government should operate. As Seidman states in his introduction:
"Why write about these experiences?" Of course, I share the goals of most memoirists: to immortalize my contribution to society; even scores with my enemies; provide financial security for my old age, confirm the taxpayers worst suspicions about their government; and generally leave a record of my adventures for the benefit of future historians".

The Real Story.......2006-11-11
This is an extremely detailed, but factual, account of the last days of the S & L industry. It will only be of interest to insiders to this sad story, but tells everything that the media didn't and should convince the thoughtful reader that there really was another side to the story. There is so much factual detail that it is very difficult reading, but for the many dedicated S & L employees who were shamed by the way events were reported, true vindication.
Excellent history .......2006-05-26
King's work is a must for those interested in financial institutions and how inside lobbying tactics affected an industry during a critical real estate depression. This book is excellent history, but it is also relevant to today's real estate market.

The Control of Nature
ASIN: 0374516901 |
Amazon.com
One of the most valuable tools for the advancement of geological science has in fact been the humble road cut. United States Interstate 80 crosses the entire North American continent, in the process exposing hundreds of millions of years of geological history. In Basin and Range, McPhee, accompanied at times by Princeton geologist Kenneth S. Deffeyes, demonstrates how the contorted and tilted rocks seen in these road cuts reveal how islands of the earth's crust have floated across the earth's surface, crashing and folding to form basin and range. This is a masterful and sometimes even poetic volume of popular writing about plate tectonics, communicating the profound satisfaction of using scientific research as a tool for understanding the world around us.
This is the first of four books on North American geology by McPhee, collectively entitled Annals of the Former World. The other volumes are In Suspect Terrain, Rising from the Plains, and Assembling California.
Book Description
The first of John McPhee’s works in his series on geology and geologists, Basin and Range is a book of journeys through ancient terrains, always in juxtaposition with travels in the modern world—a history of vanished landscapes, enhanced by the histories of people who bring them to light. The title refers to the physiographic province of the United States that reaches from eastern Utah to eastern California, a silent world of austere beauty, of hundreds of discrete high mountain ranges that are green with junipers and often white with snow. The terrain becomes the setting for a lyrical evocation of the science of geology, with important digressions into the plate-tectonics revolution and the history of the geologic time scale.
Customer Reviews:
Brilliant organizational idea, great information.......2006-01-22
The idea of examining American geology a slice at a time by following I-80 from east to west was brilliant.
In this particular volume, McPhee deals with the Great Basin portion of that travelogue geology. There's a lot more than meets the eye -- especially the untrained eye not native to the Great Basin -- in the mountains and valleys of the Silver State, McFhee shows.
Basin and Range - Get this book!.......2005-09-24
I bought the book Basin and Range recently. This is being passed around the household now and is being fought over. Everyone says its a really good book.
Very interesting for lay people interested in geology.......2005-01-15
The parralells the author draws between the eastern seaboard during the breakup of North America from Europe to the Great Basin and what is going on there was fascinating to me. McPhee helps you understand the processes geologists go through in a way that is interesting to the lay person.
The projective nature of lookin at what the continent will look like millions of years down the road was also fascinating, with a major rift zone either along the Sierra Nevada or the Wasatch front, it certainly made the mountains and valleys come to life in my native state.
Between "Basin and Range" and two books about the Geology of Utah by Hintze and Stokes, Utahns are blessed with an abundance of interesting geology books that will help the novice along and make a simple drive in the country a fascinating tour of what was and what will be.
There's more to Nevada than Las Vegas.................2003-06-11
John McPhee's Basin and Range is a layman's geology explaining the formation of mountains and valleys between the Great Salt Lake and the Sierra Nevadas. McPhee intersperses his geology with an alluring mix of personal insight and travelogue commentary which enlivens an otherwise potentially dry subject matter. McPhee makes geology approachable and uncovers the deep intrigue of a science which can be punishing when presented in textbook style. Basin and Range is a short, interesting, and enjoyable explanation of the earth's early shifts of magnitude.
GREAT BOOK- BASIN AND RANGE.......2003-03-13
John McPhee's Basin and Range kept me wanting to read more, right up to the very end. His style was very interesting, keeping his story on basin and range full of knowledge. He describes two of North America's past basin and range provinces. An ancient one which was once along America's eastern seaboard and the active basin and range which is centered in Nevada. Even for those who are not knowlegdable on geology this is an easily understood book. I would recommend this book to anyone that enjoys to read, especially someone that is interested in learning about our natural environment.

Hiking Great Basin National Park
ASIN: 0960582487 |
Book Description
This is a climbing and hiking guide to the Great Basin National Park, located in extreme eastern Nevada near the Utah line. This national park covers the south half of the Snake Range, which includes Wheeler Peak, the most dominating summit in the Great Basin. The other main attraction in the park is Lehman Caves, formerly a national monument. Also included is the northern half of the Snake Range, with it's highest peak called Mt. Moriah, at 3673 meters. The book has 47 different hikes or climbs.
Wheeler Peak is a real gem! It has a small perpetual snow field nestled in its north facing cirque basin and a rather huge rock glacier, the remains of a real ice glacier from the late Pleistocene Epoch. In this same cirque basin is one of many stands of bristlecone pines in the area. In this particular stand, once stood the oldest living organism on earth, a bristlecone pine estimated to have been 4900 years old (it was cut down in the early 1960's in the name of science). There are many other stands of these trees in the park and in the Snake Range.
Besides the climbing section with 47 hikes, there are also chapters on Lehman Caves, the Bristlecone Pines, History of Mining in the Snake Range, and geology of the area.

A comprehensive and informative book.......2005-12-24
I'm planning a trip out to the park this fall for some hiking and climbing, and I'm glad I got my hands on this guide. The route descriptions are mostly hikes or easy scrambles up to the peaks and through the bristlecone groves. The book's got a good deal background info and history on the park, detailed route descriptions with variations, gear recommendations, amenities and park regulations all packed into a convenient and light book. The maps are simple but useful for getting a good overview of the terrain, basically drawings showing the lines of the ridges, trails, roads, bristlecone groves and glaciers. For good maps stick with the USGS 7.5 minute quads. Most route descriptions also include black and white pictures of the route from a good vantage point.
A couple words of warning: distances and elevations are all metric, and some of the info, particularly on amentities, may be somewhat outdated, having been printed in 1988.
Book Description
To find out what really does lie beneath our feet, scientists from Denver's Museum of Nature and Science dug a 2,256 foot well in 1999 and what they found was a surprisingly drastic array of landscapes and animal life-it the very same spot. In addition to what they found in the sediment at that site, geologists were able to look at other findings in the area to pull together an amazing assessment of the geological history of Denver's Front Range.
Book Description
Path Integrals in Physics: Volume I, Stochastic Processes and Quantum Mechanics presents the fundamentals of path integrals, both the Wiener and Feynman type, and their many applications in physics. Accessible to a broad community of theoretical physicists, the book deals with systems possessing a infinite number of degrees in freedom. It discusses the general physical background and concepts of the path integral approach used, followed by a detailed presentation of the most typical and important applications as well as problems with either their solutions or hints how to solve them. It describes in detail various applications, including systems with Grassmann variables. Each chapter is self-contained and can be considered as an independent textbook. The book provides a comprehensive, detailed, and systematic account of the subject suitable for both students and experienced researchers.

Uninspired!.......2006-05-02
Chaichian and Demichev (Vol-I) present a sampling of topics on the mathematical aspects of path integration. There is a second volume which then covers heavier topics (so to speak) such as gravity and quantum field theory. The comments here apply ONLY to the first volume.
For the regular-Joe physicist (such as myself) who actually use path integrals in the "real world", there exists a perpetual inferiority complex about just how much of what we do (and that applies to almost all of mathematical physics) is "rigorously justified". At the same time, all the humdrum axioms and lemmas and proofs and gobbledygook notation is bearable to this group for maybe..what... two-three minutes, maybe?
So, when I first learned that these authors were going to treat this topic with an audience from earth in mind, I was pretty excited.
I was also very interested in the fact that they actually devote the first half of the presentation to the application of path-integrals to the topics of random movement which is of interest to (myself and) most applications outside of the academia. The second half of the book is devoted to the applications to non-relativistic quantum mechanics.
Having frustratedly given up on a multitude of articles on the topic of mathematical aspects of path integration after the first few paragraphs, I, nonetheless, had the nagging feeling about just how deep can they go and still keep the presentation interesting to a physicist? The larger question is: just who the intended audience is? After all, the snobby "rigor" types won't even consider a tutorial format as legitimate, and those who just don't care about the rigor of the underlying mathematics, well, just don't care.
In addition to those like myself who are anxious to know just enough about the rigor, it turns out, there is a fourth group: those who have sadly never heard about path integrals and want to learn just enough for intelligent conversation. I now believe that this book is (or at least, should be) intended for the latter group. Indeed, the preface itself says (p. ix par.5) "The book is intended for those who are familiar with the basic facts from classical and quantum mechanics". Alas it does not say exactly what these audience should expect to get out of this presentation. The preface does say (ibid. par.2) "This book expounds the fundamentals of path integrals...and their numerous applications in... physics". At that early juncture, one would wonder, just how do they intend to deliver on such a ambitious claim in only 320 pages; and it turns out that they don't.
I skimmed the first half with excitement, since the treatment of the stochastic movement by path integrals, is never properly collected in any one place that I've seen (with the qualified exception of a small book by Wiegel-1986). The coverage is fairly broad but never deep. Each short section touches on the main ideas and outlines the computation. This is not necessarily a bad thing in order to inexorably cover maximum ground. What I especially liked were all the worked example problems which would serve the basis for some form of deeper understanding. If it weren't for these, methinks, the novice reader would hardly retain any of the material presented in (what is, at best) an outline fashion.
The biggest disappointment in the section on stochastic movement was the implicit assumption of movement in dense media (hence the ubiquitous Wiener measure) in _all_ computations. I would have liked to see a mention of the fact that it is NOT always true that the variance of displacement is proportional to the first power of time-interval. This misconception is one that has misled the financial industry for nearly a century. I would have liked to see Feynman's approach to stochastic movement (a la Ch.12 Feynman&Hibbs) which elegantly shows a case where the variance goes like the cube of time-interval. Even in cases where the variance is linear in time, it only becomes thus, for times much longer than the interval between scatterings. Even in section 1.2.9 where the calculation starts free of the Wiener measure, the authors are anxious to go the large N regime where the path-integral once-again contains the Wiener measure.
Back to general observations on the book: I found the presentation felt much like the samples of music tracks for CD's for sale on Amazon: a few bars and just as it is getting enticing, it's off to another topic. That's not so bad per se; what makes it frustrating is that the authors do not say where to get the full version. This, despite the fact that the sections seem like they have been cut and pasted (and often abridged) from other sources. Indeed that jibes with the fact that these pages were once the authors' lecture notes. I too would prepare lecture just that way, but there is a long way from printing lecture notes to writing a book, much less a treatise as claimed in par.2 of the preface. If it is true that the sections were paraphrased or lifted from various sources, why not just give those sources and let the reader pursue the topic further? That alone would have made this book worthwhile as a compilation. For this shortcoming I fault the editor at IOP as much as the authors; It is the editor's responsibility to ensure that a book is more than just a fancy print-out of notes by the typical physics-types who by far don't know clear writing from a brick. But I'm really sorry to say that it gets worse.
The business of the missing citations started out as merely annoying. Until I noticed that certain cut-and-pastes are literal lifting of material from one of the sources on the topic I am familiar with. The book by Kleinert contains nearly everything any physicist needs to know about path integrals. It seems that these authors agree, alas, a little too well!!
For example start with the _close_ similarity of equations 2.268, 2.269, and 2.270 (p.165) compared to those of 2.153, 2.154, and 2.155 of Kleinert (3rd ed. section 2.3.2. as of Apr-28-06). While the sequence is only "nearly" identical and the text is paraphrased, the "auxiliary frequency" trick introduced immediately following these equations (unnumbered on top of p. 166 vs. 2.156 Kleinert Apr-28-06 p.113) is identical even in the text preceding it. Since this trick is not found anywhere else in the literature (that I've seen), it stands to good reason for the authors to cite Kleinert. The near identical sequence of calculations continues through 2.2.74 completing the cloning of the section from Kleinert.
There are more examples: pages 168 and 169 of the book seem copied of Kleinert section 2.4 and 2.4.1 on the Gelfand-Yaglom method, without proper citation.
Then there is the nearly identical sequence, in the book's section 2.4.1 starting with eqn 2.4.15 compared to Kleinert's section 6.3 eqn 6.51, and the figure 2.3 compared to Kleinert Fig 6.3.
Conversely, on pg 269 in the discussion on the Coulomb potential in 3D, the authors choose not to follow Kleinert, and to solve the path-integral using a "midpoint prescription". But then it begs the question: why not use some other choice: a post-point or pre-point. The best advice would have been to follow Kleinert's (ch.13) non-holonomic mapping technique. But that's just my preference.
I imagine that similar "issues" relative to other published sources (with which I'm not familiar ) may well exit, as I had first surmised any lecture notes would contain. The problem is that proper citations are missing particularly in cases where novel methods or results have been copied or paraphrased, firstly as proper practice of publication, and secondly, for the sake of the reader should s/he wish to pursue the topic in more detail.
The second half (as in the first half) proceeds in the same outline-esque, fast pace through major topics. As already alluded, this style's merits depend subjectively on the needs and the tastes of the reader.
The first half of the book, being devoted to random movement (Wiener's idea) contains good tutorials on how to move between the path integral approach and the traditional differential-eqn approach to stochastic movement. I can't help but think that the students and applicators of path integral never seem to get quite past the psychological need to show that what they are doing is legit, and really the same as the more traditional differential-eqn approach. The first half of the book serves this particular need well, at least in the cases of the problems typically discussed in standard texts such as the diffusion equation and slightly more complex variations thereof.
Let me cut to the chase here. To learn about path-integrals (for a physicist's purposes) one need only to own two books, the original lecture notes by Feynman (as written and edited by Hibbs) and the Kleinert's 3rd edition, as follow-on. Alas, the former is now out of print (a crime if you ask me), but I have been badgering Dover's editors to reprint it. It also contains many errors and typos; you can get a list of the corrections from me by email (write mathematicus at yahu). Kleinert's book is continually being expanded and corrected by him. He's been known to share individual chapters with other physicists in electronic format, look for him in Berlin.
Finally, when deciding to write a book on a topic where so many distinguished texts exist, the new author should ask himself what is it that I am going to say, or what new point of view am I going to present that is new or different from the existing body of literature. It seems plain that neither the authors nor the editor asked this question before generating the book in its present form. At the present price I am hard pressed to recommend it.

An Enterntaining and Feisty Anthology.......2005-05-27
AutoBioDiversity is an entertaining and feisty anthology of essays culled from the pages of ZYZZYVA in honor of the journal's twentieth anniversary. In his introduction (introductions are his forte), editor Howard Junker notes that he purposely avoided including "the usual suspects" (other than the celebrated Phil Levine) in "keeping with my essential commitment: to mine the slush pile in order to give new voices a chance." Junker should be proud of this anthology. He put these writers into print, some for the first time. These diverse voices tell us in their own words what it is to be them. And because of their eloquence, we do walk in their shoes for a short but exhilarating while. What a magnificent way to celebrate a twentieth anniversary. [The full version of this review first appeared in The Elegant Variation.]
engaging, lively multicultural first-person stories.......2005-05-01
The 27 true-life, memoir-styled stories delight again and again. Noted editor Junker of his acclaimed literary periodical ZYZZYVA has no agenda other than fresh, high-quality writing. As the title of the anthology of selections from the periodical connotes, the pieces reflect the contemporary multicultural society, especially its West Coast diversity. A number of the writers are from different ethnic backgrounds, a number are women, a number combine the two. In the pages, one finds creative nonfiction at its best--mostly plainly honest (this is what makes for the freshness), though sometimes teasingly elliptic, colorful, amusing, comprehensible, enlivening.
