Book Description
This work deals with the economic systems of the two monetary revolutionaries of this century. They reacted against orthodoxy in different ways, with Friedman redirecting and reinforcing Keynes' major contributions. Friedman used the system of testing one hypothesis against another rather than using a naive model. He provided analytical, political, and ideological positions that yield an all-encompassing analytical system.

Book Description
This acclaimed series, which has been called a biography of the U.S. Constitution, continues its examination of the role that the legislative and executive branches have played in the development of constitutional interpretation. While legal scholars typically look to the courts for guidance in deciphering the Constitution, The Constitution in Congress offers an indispensable survey of the congressional history behind the development of the Constitution.
This third volume in David P. Currie's series, the early installments of which dealt with the Federalist period and the Jeffersonian era, now turns to the Jacksonian revolution of 1829 and the subsequent efforts by Democrats to dismantle Henry Clay's celebrated "American System" of nationalist economics. Currie covers the political events of the period leading up to the start of the Civil War, showing how the slavery question, although seldom overtly discussed in the debates included in this volume, underlay the Southern insistence on strict interpretation of federal powers.
Like its predecessors, The Constitution in Congress: Democrats and Whigs, 1829-1861 will be an invaluable reference for legal scholars and constitutional historians alike.

Book Description
This comprehensive and detailed examination of the challenges faced by the newly independent state of Ukraine argues that its lackluster economic performance during the 1990s was the unfortunate result of a combination of the hasty adoption of public policies not clearly understood and a prolonged struggle to build governmental institutions. With a focus on both how the government used financial repression to balance budgets, dampen inflationary pressures and, at the same time, maintain formal and informal subsidies to state enterprises. It makes original contributions to the debate on economic reform by focusing attention on Ukraine's critical choices in the areas of state institution-building, fiscal policies and monetary reform, and the government's preference for financially-repressive policy measures.

Book Description
In this provocative and credible vision of middle-class revolt, Kenneth M. Dolbeare and Janette Kay Hubbell issue a clarion call for the economic, social, and political revolution that they predict will revitalize American democracy for the twenty-first century.
The authors propose specific, practical measures for solving the systemic problems they foresee. Among their prescriptions are routine and binding national referendums on all major issues, firmly regulated campaign funding and media access, elections opened to multiple political parties and proportional voting, and a drastically redesigned judicial system.

Customer Reviews:
Useful reference.......2003-06-04
This is probably the best book in this subject, and contains a wealth of information useful to the practicing reliability engineer, fleet risk manager and any software professional tasked with writing code to do warranty analysis. It assumes that the reader has a decent background in mathematical statistics, and is familiar with the basic ideas of stochastic processes, renewal equations, distributional analysis, etc. It's extremely expensive, but worth the price if you are serious about developing warranty models in a rigorous manner.
From a practical perspective, you need other statistical textbooks like Meeker's "Statistical Methods of Reliability Data" and Wayne Nelsons books to develop good reliability models from field data, and some books on imputation methods, Bayesian methods etc to help clean up missing data (which happens more often than you realise). Purchasing this book makes sense after you have a good reliability / field data collection and analysis program in place.
Overall, the book deserves a full five stars for being the best book out there in this important field
Book Description
Using familiar examples and careful, step-by-step explanations, the latest book in the successful American Bar Association series addresses all the major areas of consumer law. Readers will learn a wealth of information about warranties, fraud, credit cards, how to camcel unfair contracts, and even such cyberspace issues as whether software can be lawfully copied. 192 pp. Author tour. 15,000 print.

zThe California Lemon Law.......2005-10-13
Very helpful, brief hand book -- although it doesn't deal with all contingencies -- also the author (without shame) uses his book to promote his own legal services, saying "he's cheap.
Except for this it's worth buying

Description:
Firms use different instruments to convey product quality in order to counteract market failures due to lack of information on behalf of consumers. We will give a brief overview on the two main types of quality signals. Then an economic model is developed to determine which offers better incentives to provide for higher production quality. The results are applied to the present legislation on warranty law and on misleading advertisement.

Book Description
One of the World Bank's flagship annual publications, Global Economic Prospects provides essential information for those concerned with developments shaping today's global economy.
This year's Global Economic Prospects argues for reshaping the global architecture of world trade to promote development and poverty reduction.
The global economy is slipping precariously toward recession. In 2001 the three biggest economies of the world--the United States, Japan, and the European Union--entered the first simultaneous downturn since 1982, and were then hit with the added shock of the terrorist attacks in the United States. While the most probable scenario is for a recovery beginning in 2002, today's slow growth of global trade and weakening of financial flows to all but the most creditworthy countries have shackled growth in developing countries.
Increasing trade would help developing countries over the medium term. To accelerate the global integration that has been a hallmark of rapidly growing developing economies for the last two decades, the international community must work together to expand market access--and must help developing countries respond to new trading opportunities. This report presents a four-part policy agenda to do just that. Global Economic Prospects 2002:
* analyzes prospects for the global economy and the implications for developing countries and poverty reduction
* reviews policy issues in agriculture and textile trade, services, international transport, and intellectual policy rights
* presents a four-part policy agenda: launching of a development round of WTO talks, new global cooperation to expand trade outside the WTO, new policies of high-income countries to expand trade, and enacting trade reforms in developing countries
* examines trade in services and finds that reduction in barriers to entry would provide large income gains
* presents findings that suggest developing countries could increase their incomes by a cumulative $1.5 trillion over 2005-15 if all countries progressively enact the proposed trade reforms and, as a consequence, lift an additional 300 million people out of poverty by 2015.

Book Description
Free trade and globalization are evil and exploitative, cry anti-capitalist protesters all over the world. But is this really true? Is the market to blame? Or should activists really be fighting to eradicate the perverse incentives created by international agreements and European regulations? If we wish to help the poor in the developing world and raise living standards everywhere, should we place our faith in government action or in entrepreneurial activity?
This book explores these complex questions in more detail than is often devoted to them in the hurried and intense world of today's 24 hour demand for news. Policy experts from around the world assembled by the Stockholm Network and the International Policy Network lock horns over issues ranging from the need for reform of Europe's Common Agricultural Policy and the effect of Europe's increasing reliance on the precautionary principle to the impact of parallel trade in pharmaceuticals and the ramifications of the TRIPS agreement for economic growth and innovation.
These questions go to the heart of how best to deal with some of the most urgent questions facing the world today - how to help the millions dying from AIDS in the developing world, how to reduce poverty worldwide and especially in the agriculturally-dependent South, and how to manage risk without stifling economic dynamism or preventing opportunities for new ideas and products to come to market. This book should be read by anyone with a desire to understand globalization and the challenges it faces in the 21st century.
