Global Report on Student Well-Being: Volume II: Family, Friends, Living Partner, and Self-Esteem
ISBN: 9780387976662 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) I suppose that most of the people reading this volume will have read or have access to Volume One of my Global Report on Student Well Being. Therefore, I will not review the background literature relevant to multiple discrepancies theory (MDT), the theory itself or the essential features of the international university undergraduate data set on which this whole report is based. Anyone familiar with my earlier papers (Michalos 1985, 1987, 1988) will have a good idea of MDT. However, one really has to have a look at the first volume of this study in order to appreciate the richness of a...

How Good Policies and Business Ethics Enhance Good Quality of Life: The Selected Works of Alex C. Michalos
ISBN: 9783319507231 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This volume provides bridges from the social sciences to business ethics and from the latter to the quality of life, by connecting the research themes of quality of life, social sciences, including public policy-making, and business ethics or corporate responsibility. It builds on the premise that public policy making is essentially a species of good decision making, as explained in the first volume. It shows that, because most developed countries function as market economies whose governments depend on taxation to pay for their services and because a large proportion of government revenue...

ISBN: 9789027710581 / Angielski / Miękka / 1980 / 278 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) It would have been nice to have been able to write this book with the style of Mailer, the wit of Shaw, the breadth of Myrdal and the zeal of Nader. It would also have been miraculous. Rest assured there are no miracles here. On the contrary, the work in your hands undoubtedly bears all the marks of imperfect human design. It's too long for one book, but probably too short for the story to be told. It's not the sort of book one can hope to fmish, even in five volumes. There is always one more table one might squeeze in, one more column or row, an illustrative chart or figure, another...

The Popper-Carnap Controversy
ISBN: 9789024751273 / Angielski / Miękka / 1971 / 124 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 1 In 1954 Karl Popper published an article attempting to show that the identification of the quantitative concept degree of confirmation with the quantitative concept degree of probability is a serious error. The error was presumably committed by J. M. Keynes, H. Reichen- bach and R. Carnap. 2 It was Popper's intention then, to expose the error and to introduce an explicatum for the prescientific concept of degree of confirmation. A few months later Y. Bar-Hillel published an article attempting to show that no serious error had been committed (particularly by Carnap) and that the problem...

The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and the Agreement on Internal Trade (AIT) were designed to strengthen investor's rights at the expense of community rights and environmental protection. Both deals have achieved their aims.
