Beyond Reforms

02 Feb 2012 00:00:00 GMT

By Jose Antonio Ocampo, Jose Ocampo

£66.50 02 Feb 2012 Hardback Stanford University Press

Beyond Reforms reviews long-term growth and development patterns and focuses on macroeconomic vulnerability and its social effects. The eight chapters offer theoretical and methodological contributions that share a common focus: how to improve the frustratingly poor economic performance in Latin America, as well as in other parts of the developing world, experienced during the recent phase of economic liberalization.

This collection presents a more precise view of the risks and challenges that characterize the new economic era and advances a set of alternative economic policies to manage the open developing-country economies of the early twenty-first century. Ideas that have been absent from the reform agenda over the past two decades are recognized as critical in fostering the improved economic and social performance that liberalization has so far failed to produce.

15 Jan 2012 00:00:00 GMT

Rediscovering the Missing Element

By John D Mueller

£15.95 15 Jan 2012 Paperback ISI Books

Our best economist thus far has been Augustine. This, in effect, is the argument of John D. Mueller's contrarian and groundbreaking "Redeeming Economics," which posits that economic theory has since Adam Smith mistakenly discarded from its analyses basic elements of economic behavior. Through numerous examples and arguments, Mueller argues for the renewal of a "neoscholastic" economics that not only incorporates a theory of personal, social and political "gifts," but also recognizes Augustine's "divine trace of equity" as a key source of market order.

Addressing Competitiveness and Carbon Leakage

By Trevor Houser

£21.50 15 Jan 2012 Paperback The Peterson Institute for International Economics

For the foreseeable future, the international climate regime will include some countries that execute emissions commitments on an economy-wide basis and others that take more limited action. This distinction is already raising some tricky political concerns, particularly the fear that the resulting costs will cause the off-shoring of industrial activity and the associated "leakage" of carbon emissions from regulated to unregulated jurisdictions. The author explores a range of viable policy options for addressing these concerns. This book starts with a comprehensive "bottoms-up" assessment of the industries most likely to be affected, how impacts vary between countries given differences in the carbon-intensity of production, and how attaching a price to carbon would change global industry allocation and influence international trade flows. Based on this foundation, it assesses the effectiveness of a number of international policy approaches in addressing emissions leakage.

Financial Regulation After the Subprime and Credit Crisis

15 Jan 2012 00:00:00 GMT

By Morris Goldstein

£19.50 15 Jan 2012 Paperback The Peterson Institute for International Economics

The recent subprime mortgage and credit crisis has affected nearly all Americans. It is too late to prevent this crisis, but it is not too early to look at what caused it and what can be done to avert similar situations in the future. The volume presents an insightful analysis of the crisis' catalysts, and most importantly advances a practical plan to overcome the deficiencies of the existing regulatory regime. What lessons have we learned about regulatory reform, models of securitization, and liquidity requirements? This book addresses issues central to the debate for strengthening regulatory design through a reduction of home foreclosures, an imperative to improve the performance of credit-rating agencies, and an agreement on executive compensation. By identifying strategies for modification within the market, Goldstein proposes workable reforms that respond appropriately to current financial vulnerabilities and minimize the likelihood of a future crisis.

By Augusto De La Torre, Sergio Schumukler, Juan Carlos Gozzi

£23.50 15 Jan 2012 Paperback World Bank Publications

This book discusses recent innovative experiences in broadening access to credit in Latin America.

The book concludes with some open policy questions about the role of public and private sectors in driving financial innovations.

Watt's Perfect Engine

02 Jan 2012 00:00:00 GMT

By Ben Marsden

This book reveals how James Watt -- inventor of the separate-condenser steam engine -- became an icon fit for an age of industry and invention. Watt has become synonymous with the spirit of invention, while his last name has long been immortalized as the very measurement of power. But contrary to popular belief, Watt did not single-handedly bring about the steam revolution. His "perfect engine" was as much a product of late-nineteenth-century Britain as it was of the inventor's imagination.

What Not to Do in the Workplace from Michael Scott and the Gang

By Terry A. Kirkpatrick

£14.99 28 Aug 2011 Paperback Jefferson Press

This affectionate tribute examines the insights that underpin the humor in the hit NBC television series, "The Office," and offers weary office drones a painless path to business savvy. "Do not grope your boss in the office. Never let employees see you sweat. And don't even think about being the office party planner." These vital lessons for workplace success are just some of the "lessons learned" at the expense of the funniest office staff on television, and Michael Scott and his team of employees at Dunder Mifflin Paper Company have learned them the hard way. The Office has reinvented the office sitcom--and skewered dozens of tired business cliches along the way. In this guide, the show is a springboard for leadership advice as well as management techniques.

Patent Law in the Supreme Court

25 Aug 2011 00:00:00 GMT

By Thomas Krause

£110.00 25 Aug 2011 Paperback Oxford University Press Inc

In view of the Supreme Court's heightened interest in patent law, practitioners at all levels are well advised to bear in mind, for each issue in litigation, to what extent the "settled" (or not so settled) Federal Circuit law has gone beyond the baseline set by the Supreme Court, as well as a sense of the extent to which these differences might lead to Supreme Court review of the issue. Patent Law in the Supreme Court comprehensively reviews key Supreme Court decisions, provides Supreme Court and Federal Circuit "State of the Law" analyses, and discusses the many factors (dissents, panel decisions, academic commentary, and so on) that are indicators of "certworthiness" i.e., likelihood of Supreme Court review.

Lean Principles and Appoaches for Pharmaceutical and Research-based

By Terence M Barnhart

£31.99 19 Aug 2011 Hardback Taylor & Francis Inc

Using the example of Pfizer's, Terence Barnhart demonstrates that lean implementation isn't strictly for manufacturing, that it can just as effectively be implemented in an R&D organization, providing that you understand the differences that the different culture requires. Barnhart, who is a director for Pfizer's, demonstrates why the lean approach is appropriate for R & D. He explains why he believes that success is contingent on merging lean principles with the cultural virtues inherent in R & D, and shows how R&D organizations should employ a middle-out systemic approach that immediately engages all the stakeholders involved.
