Market Structure and Innovation

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Kamien, Morton I., PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, Technical advance requires resources and is motivated by the quest for profits; therefore, the rate and direction of advance is determined by the economic system. Recognition of this fact has focused attention on the performance of the market economy in the allocation of resources to technical advance, and the consequent body of research is surveyed and synthesised in this book. The theories of market structure and innovation proposed by Schumpeter, Galbraith, Arrow, Schmookler, Scherer, Mansfield, Phillips, Barzel, Kamien and Schwartz, Loury, Nelson and Winter, Grabowski, Dasgupta and Stiglitz, and others are presented in an integrated form. These theories deal with the nature of competition, the incentives to innovate and the pace of innovative activity under different market structures, and the existence of a market structure that yields the most rapid rate of innovation. In addition, the findings of seventy empirical studies dealing with various facets of the microeconomics of technical innovation are presented. The book is designed to be accessible to economists working in a variety of situations - in universities, business and government - and who are concerned with questions of technical innovation. It is also suitable for senior-level undergraduates and first year graduate students approaching the subject in a comprehensive way for the first time.

Awful Green Stuff and the Nakedness of Trees

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Lerrigo-Leidich, Harriette, PUBLISHER: Rutledge Books, Harriette Lerrigo-Leidich literally grew up with printer's ink on her hands. The daughter of a Nebraska newspaperman, she began her career as a columnist when she was fourteen, nearly seventy-five years ago. She continues to engage readers with a marvelously evocative, distinctive voice that combines the warm friendliness of your favorite neighbor with the keen perception of a seasoned journalist. Awful Green Stuff and the Nakedness of Trees is a collection of articles that explores the author's rich memories of the past to give meaningful insights into the puzzling complexities of contemporary society. In these homespun, but sharply observant pieces we are taken back to a time in small town America when the general store was the lively information center of the community, a sliver of an alligator pear was an exotic delicacy, and a young girl's first flight in an airplane was a magically exhilarating experience. Though the clacking typewriters and the rumbling printing presses of a bygone era have been replaced with quietly humming computers, the thoughtful, deliciously droll stories told here remind us that the things that really count in life are timeless.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Finger, David E., PUBLISHER: Potomac Books, Boxing fans love the upset, seeing the underdog surprise the heavy favorite and take the fight to him, winning over the fans and-perhaps even more important-the judges.

Compl Wks Rbt Browning 16: With Variant Readings and

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Browning, Robert / Crowl, Susan / King, Roma A., JR., PUBLISHER: Ohio University Press, Robert Browning wrote Parleyings with Certain People of Importance in Their Day in his seventy-third year. The work is a capstone to the poet's long career, encompassing autobiography as well as influences bearing on the poet's life and career and on Victorian thought and culture in general. One of Browning's most complex works, Parleyings is also a work essential to understanding his genius and career as a whole. The Ohio/Baylor Browning edition offers keys to the complexity and interest of Parleyings through a definitive, emended text, full annotations for allusions both explicit and implicit in the text, and variant readings for the manuscript and all editions revised by Browning during his lifetime. In form and structure, Parleyings is a series of seven poems written in Browning's own voice and addressed to figures influential in his development. The series is framed by a prologue and an epilogue, the whole amounting to some lines. The poems are a formal contrast and a pendant to the great series of linked dramatic monologues in The Ring and the Book. They demonstrate the zest for innovation possessed by the master of the dramatic monologue in his ripe maturity. Interested readers as well as students and scholars of Browning will find a rich field of poetry and a critical mass of resources in Volume XVI of the Ohio/Baylor Browning edition.

On the Trail to Wounded Knee: The Big Foot Memorial Ride

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Le Querrec, Guy / Harrison, Jim / Rochard, Jean, PUBLISHER: Lyons Press, In , after the assassination of Sitting Bull, his friend, Chief Big Foot -- denounced as an agitator by the government -- decided to seek refuge with another Sioux chief, Red Cloud. Big Foot, seventy-years old and suffering from pneumonia, gathered his tribe of mostly women, children, and the elderly, and set out for the long journey that would take them to Pine Ridge. Just twenty miles short of their destination, federal soldiers captured Big Foot and his followers, imprisoning them at Wounded Knee. The next day, December 29, the 7th Cavalry exterminated every man, woman, and child. More than 180 Sioux died there that day. In , to honor what remains the symbol of the Indian genocide, members of the Sioux nation vowed to follow the trail of their ancestors. On their last journey in , the 100th anniversary of the massacre, photographer Guy Le Querrec followed the trail with them. During bitter cold December weather, with temperatures below zero for days on end, Le Querrec shot these gritty, yet compelling images of the Lakota Sioux horsemen. In the words of Jim Harrison, Le Querrec has "the splendid but ruthless eye of the tragedian." "On the Trail to Wounded Knee" is both a tribute to the massacred Lakota Sioux peoples and a cry for justice, and as Harrison observes, "these photographs will light a fire in your spirit, a fire which will last forever, if you are a human being worthy of this name."

Emergency Calls Emergency Calls Emergency Calls: Stories

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Fincke, Gary, PUBLISHER: University of Missouri Press, Troubled relationships between parents and children, most of them adults or at least in their late teens, provide the framework for many stories in this collection. In "Faculty X," a middle-aged son witnesses his mother's fixation with death and her attempt to cope with senility. "If I lose my glasses for good, you have to promise me you'll buy another pair just like them. I can't be buried without my glasses. I wouldn't be myself." In "Keeping Nice," Greg Haskins deals with his conflicting emotions of "contempt" for his aging mother's obsession to keep her belongings "nice" by covering them with plastic and his own fear of the uncontrollable forces around him. Both "Callback" and the moving title story, "Emergency Calls," explore the anxieties of parents trying to balance the need to protect their teenage children with the task of making them accountable for their own often self-destructive actions. "Darwin in the City" centers on a man's paranoia and anxiety attacks over everything from hearing his wife gurgle her last breath into her pillow to the impending blindness that he knows will be his fate. In "The Tabloid Strategy" an elderly man is determined to create a new beginning for himself. "'I'm running for office, ' Lou Gorski said to his daughter on his seventy-first birthday. 'I'm starting my second life.'" The reader soon discovers, however, that starting a second life isn't quite that simple. With vivid description and compelling dialogue, Gary Fincke pulls the reader deep into these stories and into the lives of these unforgettable characters. "Emergency Calls" is a masterful collection by a truly gifted writer.
