Culture and Currency Cultural Bias in Monetary Theory and Policy

Culture and Currency Cultural Bias in Monetary Theory and Policy
John W. Houghton, "Culture and Currency: Cultural Bias in Monetary Theory and Policy"
English | ISBN: 0367004216 | 2019 | 220 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
The aim of this book is to shed light on how people come to hold opposing views, how these views solidify into the sides of a debate and how one side becomes the dominant view. Why, as all have access to the same nature, physical and human, don't they come to the same conclusions? Or, if each individual is different, why don't they come to wholly different conclusions? A sociology of perception must explain both why the world resembles neither an epistemological Tower of Babel in which communication between individuals is impossible nor a homogenized blend in which communication is no longer necessary. t

Croatia and the European Union Changes and Development

Croatia and the European Union Changes and Development
Pero Maldini, "Croatia and the European Union: Changes and Development "
English | ISBN: 1472431855 | 2015 | 216 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
The accession of Croatia to the EU marked the end of a long and arduous period of transition. Croatia had to meet significantly higher criteria than previous states with suspicion and concerns among existing members about further enlargement increasing. Meanwhile initially strong public support in Croatia declined as inconsistencies in EU policy, entry criteria and problems caused by the economic crisis all combined with fears about the loss of national identity and the ability to realize national interests. The successful Croatian accession to the EU in 2013 shows that, despite concerns on both sides, the EU continues to have meaning and significance and that membership remains highly desirable. Through nine mutually interrelated chapters the contributors speak not only about the political and social situation in Croatia, but also prospects for the European Union itself.

Contributions to Modern and Ancient Tidal Sedimentology Proceedings of the Tidalites 2012 Conference

Contributions to Modern and Ancient Tidal Sedimentology Proceedings of the Tidalites 2012 Conference
Jean-Yves Reynaud, Bernadette Tessier, "Contributions to Modern and Ancient Tidal Sedimentology: Proceedings of the Tidalites 2012 Conference"
English | 2016 | pages: 362 | ISBN: 1119218373 | PDF | 123,2 mb
Tidal deposits have been a specific research topic for about 40 years, and whilst this has resulted in a proliferation of papers in scientific journals, there have only been a few book-length syntheses. Over the years, tidal sedimentology has been reinforced by fluid mechanics and numerical modelling but has remained rooted in facies and stratigraphic studies. Recent developments in tidal sedimentology lean toward a more quantitative assessment of the imprint of tides in the facies record of intertidal and shallow subtidal areas. They highlight the increasing relevance of tidal deposits studies, from high resolution subsurface reservoir geology to climate change and sea-level rise. This volume gathers 17 contributions to the Tidalites 2012 congress held in Caen, France. It reflects current advances in the sedimentology and stratigraphy of tidal deposits, in both ancient and modern environments. It shows the current diversity of this field of research, through a wide spectrum of methods including remote sensing, in-situ hydrodynamical measurements, and ichnology, in addition to classic field studies and petrography.

Contract Law in Focus

Contract Law in Focus
Lucille M. Ponte, "Contract Law in Focus "
English | ISBN: 1454878509 | 2016 | 882 pages | PDF | 10 MB
Providing a comprehensive, practice-oriented approach to the legal and practical aspects of contract law, Contract Law In Focus offers realworld scenarios throughout give students numerous opportunities to apply and solidify their understanding of important concepts. Clear explanatory text, Case Previews, and Case Follow-ups further clarify the doctrine and aid in student understanding. This text begins with a helpful introduction to the study of contract law, providing basic information about the way contracts are governed in the United States. It then introduces formation of contracts, covering offer, acceptance, consideration, and exceptions to consideration. The casebook moves on to provide clear and comprehensive discussions of defenses, excuses, and remedies for breach. By effectively synthesizing the statutory law, common law, relevant rules, and secondary sources, while offering a focus on understanding contract law - as it developed in the past, exists today, and will evolve in the future - the authors have created an indispensable guide for students learning contract law.

Continuous Optimization and Variational Inequalities

Continuous Optimization and Variational Inequalities
Continuous Optimization and Variational Inequalities
English | 2023 | ISBN: 1032267836 | 379 Pages | PDF (True) | 9 MB
The proposed book provides a comprehensive coverage of theory and methods in the areas of continuous optimization and variational inequality. It describes theory and solution methods for optimization with smooth and non-smooth functions, for variational inequalities with single-valued and multivalued mappings, and for related classes such as mixed variational inequalities, complementarity problems, and general equilibrium problems. The emphasis is made on revealing generic properties of these problems that allow creation of efficient solution methods.
