The Economics of Imperfect Competition: A Spatial Approach

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Greenhut, Melvin L. / Norman, George / Hung, Chao-Shun, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, This book takes a new approach to traditional price theory and to the analysis of imperfect competition. It represents a breakthrough in the development of a 'new' microeconomic theory. Increasingly, it has been recognized that the perfectly competitive paradigm is inappropriate to the explanation of pricing behaviour in many 'real life' markets characterized by a significant separation between producers and consumers. The spatial perspective adopted by the authors provides a natural separation of markets, but provides as well a powerful analogy for apparently nonspatial issues such as product differentiation, pricing over time, problems of storage and transportation, and the economics of intraindustry trade and of the multinational enterprise. A major concern of The Economics of Imperfect Competition: A Spatial Approach is to make these analogies explicit by applying this spatial analysis to a wide variety of nonspatial problems. In addition, the analysis and results presented in this book are shown to carry signficant policy implications with respect, for example, to the Robinson-Patman legislation, antimerger policies, and antidumping legislation. In particular, the authors have addressed issues that are of increasing concern to specialists, researchers, policy makers, and students in the areas of price theory, industrial organization, international trade, and regional and urban economics.

Game Theory and National Security

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Brams, Steven / Kilgour, D. Marc, PUBLISHER: Wiley-Blackwell, In this path-breaking theoretical work, political scientist Steven Brams and mathematician Mark Kilgour show how game theory can be applied to the rigorous development and thoughtful analysis of several critical problems that afflict the security of nations, from the deterrence of foes who might launch attacks, to the stabilization of crises that could explode into wars. In addition, they analyze a variety of related questions, including the interlocking preferences that fuel arms races, the strategic impact that Star Wars may have on nuclear deterrence, and optimal strategies for verifying arms control treaties. Of interest to students on international relations and foreign policy as well as those concerned with the formal analysis of conflict, Game Theory and National Security provides new foundations for understanding the rational basis of international conflict.

Take Back the Light: A Feminist Reclamation of Spirituality

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Ruth, Shelia / Ruth, Sheila, PUBLISHER: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, Feminists have long argued that at the hands of patriarchal religious institutions, women have been brutalized, exploited, and manipulated. In this book, part philosophical analysis/part meditation, philosopher Sheila Ruth explores an ancient and profoundly different orientation to life, Paganism, to show the possibilities, the pleasures, and the power of connecting the self with the cosmic. Take Back the Light contains certain elements that make it unique: the blend of strategies-including philosophical analysis, poetry, autobiography, and mystical stories; an avowedly feminist stance that is grounded in traditional philosophical training as well as women's experience and feminist scholarship; and most particularly, the intention to make clear to those feminists who are opposed to religion in principle that spirituality need not be inconsistent with positive, progressive social action.

Mining the Web: Discovering Knowledge from Hypertext Data

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Chakrabarti, Soumen, PUBLISHER: Morgan Kaufmann Publishers, Mining the Web: Discovering Knowledge from Hypertext Data is the first book devoted entirely to techniques for producing knowledge from the vast body of unstructured Web data. Building on an initial survey of infrastructural issues-including Web crawling and indexing-Chakrabarti examines low-level machine learning techniques as they relate specifically to the challenges of Web mining. He then devotes the final part of the book to applications that unite infrastructure and analysis to bring machine learning to bear on systematically acquired and stored data. Here the focus is on results: the strengths and weaknesses of these applications, along with their potential as foundations for further progress. From Chakrabarti's work-painstaking, critical, and forward-looking-readers will gain the theoretical and practical understanding they need to contribute to the Web mining effort. * A comprehensive, critical exploration of statistics-based attempts to make sense of Web Mining. * Details the special challenges associated with analyzing unstructured and semi-structured data. * Looks at how classical Information Retrieval techniques have been modified for use with Web data. * Focuses on today's dominant learning methods: clustering and classification, hyperlink analysis, and supervised and semi-supervised learning. * Analyzes current applications for resource discovery and social network analysis. * An excellent way to introduce students to especially vital applications of data mining and machine learning technology.

More Guns, Less Crime: Understanding Crime and Gun-Control

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Lott, John R., Jr., PUBLISHER: University of Chicago Press, On its initial publication in , John R. Lott's "More Guns, Less Crime" drew both lavish praise and heated criticism. More than a decade later, it continues to play a key role in ongoing arguments over gun-control laws: despite all the attacks by gun-control advocates, no one has ever been able to refute Lott's simple, startling conclusion that more guns mean less crime. Relying on the most rigorously comprehensive data analysis ever conducted on crime statistics and right-to-carry laws, the book directly challenges common perceptions about the relationship of guns, crime, and violence. For this third edition, Lott draws on an additional ten years of data--including provocative analysis of the effects of gun bans in Chicago and Washington, D.C--that brings the book fully up to date and further bolsters its central contention.

Managed Health Care

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Robinson, Ray / Steiner, Andrea, PUBLISHER: Open University Press, Healthcare in the United States has undergone a managed care revolution. The approach has transformed the way in which health services are financed and delivered. Arising from this experience, techniques such as utilization management, physician profiling and disease management are attracting attention worldwide. Many management consultants, pharmaceutical companies and policy analysts advocate managed care as the way forward for improving the performance of healthcare systems. In this headlong rush, far too little attention has been paid to the research evidence on managed care. This book carries out a systematic review of the high quality research evidence on managed care in the US. Through a detailed analysis of the research literature they assess the performance of managed care in terms of its impact on utilization, costs, health promotion and screening, quality of care and other key indicators. Following this analysis, they consider the development of managed care approaches in the NHS with particular reference to the early research evidence primary care based, total purchasing pilot projects.

Politics of Knowledge: The Commercialization of the

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Ohmann, Richard M. / Radway, Janice, PUBLISHER: Wesleyan, Cultural analysis of the American university system. Richard Ohmann's work is in a class by itself. While editor of College English, and in the three books he published since then, he has created America's most comprehensive vision of how teaching and scholarship are at once part of the university, of society and of history. In Politics of Knowledge, Ohmann's essays and interviews analyze, explain and criticize the roles of the university, the academic professions and publishing in a rearranged America. Focusing on the opposed movements of a more open university and overwhelmingly powerful multinational corporations, he offers language and formulations that will help present generations move closer to the hope that teaching and scholarly work can enhance the lives of all. This scholar, teacher and activist sets his often anecdotal and autobiographical reflections within the broad tapestry of historical, economic and material conditions. It is this combination of the long backward-looking personal perspective and adept critical analysis that have made his work a resource for professors and students alike.

Methods for Investigating Localized Clustering of Disease

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Alexander / Alexander, F. E. / Boyle, P., PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, Since the beginning of this century, "clusters" of certain forms of cancer--particularly leukemia in children and Hodgkin's disease--have been reported around locations of specific environmental hazards. Identification of such clusters is not an easy task, since there is no exact definition of what a cluster is. This monograph describes the variety of statististical techniques cuurently in use, and their application to simulated data-sets chosen to represent a range of clustering scenarios. The scientists who developed these techniques were invited to apply their methodology to these data-sets and to share their conclusions in this volume. In addition, these researchers describe in complete detail how they proceeded with the analysis, since an element of subjectivity figures prominently in the application and interpretation of some of these methods. The identification and analysis of disease clusters can yield significant clues in epidemiologic research, and as such will continue to be an important subject of cancer research and epidemiology for the foreseeable future.
