Overview: Sir Austin Robinson had a career unique among economists. A close associate of Keynes, he began as a seaplane pilot in the First World War and spent two years in the 1920s tutoring a Maharajah in India. He was at the centre of economic policy-making during and after World War 2, and in postwar years was professor, editor, promoter of economic debate and economic adviser in many countries.978-1-349-22897-3978-1-349-22895-9

Overview: In an era of globalization, private markets are expected to dominate the distribution of goods worldwide. Yet surprisingly little empirical work is conducted on them. The sensitive and secret nature of trading information, the complexity of real markets and the lack of official data other than that on price can all cause problems. This book seeks to overcome these in examining arguably the most difficult markets of all - agricultural markets under conditions of underdevelopment. Case-studies from nine countries covering all three underdeveloped continents offer a comprehensive overvi

Overview: .This book describes how to apply ICONIX Process (a minimal, use case-driven modeling process) in an agile software project. It‘s full of practical advice for avoiding common agile pitfalls. Further, the book defines a core agile subset so those of you who want to get agile need not spend years learning to do it. Instead, you can simply read this book and apply the core subset of techniques...The book follows a real-life .NET/C# project from inception and UML modeling, to working code through several iterations. You can then go on-line to compare the finished product with the initial

Overview: In the 50 years that have passed since Alfred Latka‘s death in 1949 his position as the father of mathematical demography has been secure. With his first demographic papers in 1907 and 1911 (the latter co­ authored with F. R. Sharpe) he laid the foundations for stable population theory, and over the next decades both largely completed it and found convenient mathematical approximations that gave it practical applica­ tions. Since his time, the field has moved in several directions he did not foresee, but in the main it is still his. Despite Latka‘s stature, however, the reader still

Overview: .The two-volume set LNCS 14634 and 14635 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 27th European Conference on Applications of Evolutionary Computation, EvoApplications 2024, held as part of EvoStar 2024, in Aberystwyth, UK, April 3–5, 2024, and co-located with the EvoStar events, EvoCOP, EvoMUSART, and EuroGP..The 51 full papers presented in these proceedings were carefully reviewed and selected from 77 submissions. The papers have been organized in the following topical sections: applications of evolutionary computation; analysis of evolutionary computation methods: theory, empir

Overview: Forschungstheoretische Grundlagen für queertheoretische quantitative Empirie.Zentrale These des Open-Access-Buchs von Julia Scholz ist, dass eine queer(end)e Experimentalpsychologie mit der Herangehensweise des Agential Realism kein Widerspruch in sich ist, obwohl verbreitete Verständnisweisen von Queertheorien und von Experimentalpsychologie(n) dies berechtigterweise zunächst nahelegen. Die Autorin konfrontiert experimentalpsychologische Wissensproduktion mit queertheoretischen Kritiken und diskutiert Unvereinbarkeiten der epistemologischen und ontologischen Perspektiven queertheore

Overview: Aktivierung: Leitbild der Transformation?"Aktivierung" ist zum zentralen Leitbild der Transformation der westlichen Wohlfahrtsstaaten geworden - wenngleich sich abzeichnet, dass die Bilanzen der Politiken der "Aktivierung" eher vernichtend ausfallen. Aus sozialpädagogischer Perspektive enthält der aktuelle - vorrangig ökonomisch orientierte - sozialpolitische Aktivierungsdiskurs vielfältige Optionen, in denen genuin pädagogische Interventionsformen nur undeutlich definiert werden. Das Glossar greift derzeit zentrale Begriffe auf und positioniert und hinterfragt wichtige Referenzen so

Overview: This book addresses the question of animal rights in the context of literary criticism. Working from a committed position, it asks the question, ‘What would literary studies look like if we took animal rights seriously?‘ It offers critical surveys of the main themes in the history of animal rights and some of the more important contemporary positions together with readings of a wide range of literary texts from classical antiquity to the present day.978-1-349-41045-3978-0-230-51354-9

Overview: This volume characterizes the current state of natural scienceand socioeconomic modeling of the impacts of climate change andcurrent climate variability on forests, grasslands, and water. Itidentifies what can be done currently with impact assessments andsuggests how to undertake such assessments. Impediments to linkingbiophysical and socioeconomic models into integrated assessments forpolicy purposes are identified, and recommendations for futureresearch activities to improve the state of the art and remove theseimpediments to model integration are provided. .This book is for natura

Overview: This book constitutes the proceedings of the 19th International Symposium on Acoustical Imaging at the Ruhr-University Bochum, Germany during April 3 -5, 1991. It was the first time that the symposium was held in Europe after major political changes happened in that area. The freedom to travel for all people from eastern European countries was an obvious reason for the great numbers of sub­ mitted abstracts and for numerous conference participants. 193 of 239 submitted contributions from 29 countries were accepted for presentation by authors from USA (13%), Canada (2%), Japan (7%), P
